Carl's Chicken Pox
By Jennifer Kenny
  

1     Carl was home sick. He had a runny nose. He also had a small cough.
 
2     Carl watched some TV. He drew a picture. He took a nap. He went to bed early that night.
 
3     Carl stayed home again. He did all the same things.
 
4     The next morning was strange. Carl was home sick. He still had a runny nose. He still had a small cough. He also had a rash.
 
5     He had a rash on his chest. He also had a rash on his face.
 
6     "Mommy!" Carl yelled.
