Name Reading Fiction

Last week, my class took a trip to the zoo. We went to the snake house. Some
people were scared, but not me! I knew we were safe. The snakes were behind
the glass. We fed peanuts to the baby goats and watched the monkeys swing
from branch to branch. Sometimes, my father calls me a monkey, and now I know
why! I wanted to ask my gymnastics coach to teach me some tricks I saw the
monkeys do.
