The first real snow of the winter
had fallen the night before. In
the morning, Billy came out and
started to roll a snowball. Soon
he had two big ones. Round and round the yard again–
there was a little snowball, just the
right size for a snowman’s head.
Then, he ran home and brought
two bits of coal for the snowman’s
eyes, a carrot for a nose and an
old red cowboy hat. “There it is,–
said Billy, - my snowman friend!”
Later that evening, while he was
eating dinner, one of his front teeth,
which had been loose for a long
time, finally came out. His mother said “Don’t forget to put
your tooth under your pillow so that
when the Tooth Fairy comes she can
wave her magic wand and turn your
tooth into some money.” Billy said
“Yes mom.” and put the tooth into
his pocket.
