ask their parents,the answer is always the same.Robin:Can we buy a kitten?Mrs.Baker:No.Your brother is allergic to cat hair.Chris:Can we buy an aquarium with fish?Mr.Baker:No.Cleaning fish tanks is too much work.Sam:I caught this snake in the front yard.Can we keep it?Mrs.Baker:Certainly not!Narrator:One day,Mr.and Mrs.Baker must have been in a very good mood.They called their three children into the living room and asked them to sit down.Super Teacher Worksheets -Page 2Mrs.Baker:Your father and I have been talkingMr.Baker:and we think that you are old enough and mature enoughMrs.Baker:To get a pet.Mr.Baker:You can choose the pet,but you children must take full responsibility for it.All kids:Oh,thank you,thank you,thank you!Mr.Baker:Why dont you kids talk about what type of pet youd like,then let us know?Narrator:Mr.and Mrs.Baker knew their children would have trouble deciding on the perfect pet.After only ten minutes,the kids came back into the living room.Sam:Weve thought about it.Robin:And we know what pet we want.ChrisWe want to get.All kids:A bear.Mrs.Baker:A teddy bear,you mean?Sam:Nope.A real bear.Think about it.Its the perfect pet.First,its special.I dont know any other kid who has a bear.Do you?Robin:Bears are easy to feed.They love things likeberries and honey and fish.Chris:And they sleep in the winter,so we can go on trips during the holidays.Robin:It would also be the perfect guard pet,dont you think?Burglars would stay far away from our house if we had a pet bear.Super Teacher Worksheets -Page 3Narrator:The children didnt notice their parents turning pale.Sam:Of course,well need a bigger bedroom,so the bear can fit.Butother than that,I think were all set.What do you think?Narrator:There was silence.The children looked at their parents faces for the first time since they had started talking.Robin:Were not getting a bear,are we?Narrator:Mr.and Mrs.Baker looked at each other thoughtfully.They were surprised that their children wanted a bear.The children were even more surprised at their parents answer.Mrs.Baker:Of course you can have a bear!Mr.Baker:Your mom and I think its a wonderful idea!All kids:You do?Mrs.Baker:Now,if we get a bear,you children will need to be responsible for feeding it.Lets see,how much would a bear eat?Mr.Baker:Hmm.Id say a bear could eat about 20 pounds of berries each day and five or six large fish.Mrs.Baker:Thats too much for me to carry home from the store.The kids will have to walk to the supermarket to pick these things up every day.Mr.Baker:Yes,it will be hard on the kids in the winter.Theyll have to walk a mileto the supermarket in the snow.Mrs.Baker:Theyll also have to walk a mile back,carrying all of the bear food.Sam:Walk a whole mile?Robin:Every day?Super Teacher Worksheets -Page 4Chris:Even in the winter?Mr.Baker:And,of course,bear food is expensive too.We certainly couldnt afford to buy bear food at the supermarket each week.Mrs.Baker:Youre right,Honey.I guess the kids will need to buy all the fish and berries with their own money.All kids:Our own money!?Mr.Baker:Oh,yes.But dont worry.It shouldnt cost more than$500 a week.Chris:But we dont have$500 a week.Robin:We only get$6 a week for an allowance.Mrs.Baker:Oh,thats right.I didnt even think of that.Mr.Baker:No problem!Well give you extra chores to earn money.Mrs.Baker:What a great idea!For$500 a week,the kids will be doing work around here all day long.Robin:But Dad.Mrs.Baker:They could do laundry and cook dinner every night.Sam:Mom,no!Mr.Baker:And clean the garage,and mow the lawn,and iron clothes.All kids:Stop!Stop!Stop!Narrator:The Baker children couldnt take it any more!They didnt want to walk to the supermarket every day.They didnt want to spend their allowance money on bear food.And they certainly didnot want more chores!Super Teacher Worksheets -Page 5Robin:Wed like to change our minds.Chris:Perhaps a bear is not the right pet for us.Sam:Our second choice is much more sensible.Mrs.Baker:Oh?What is your second choice?Is it an elephant?A horse?Mr.Baker:Is it a rhinoceros?Maybe a dinosaur?All kids:No!Robin:Wed love to get a puppy!Sam:We want a furry puppy!Chris:We want a puppy that will play fetch and roll over!Mr.Baker:Now THAT is a sensible decision.Narrator:Two days later,Chris,Sam,and Robin walked through their front door with a new puppy.Mr.Baker:Why dont you name your new puppy Domino?Sam:No.That name is not quite right.Mrs.Baker:Why dont you name your new puppy Buster?Robin:No.Buster doesnt sound right either.Mr.Baker:Then what will you name him?All
