Bike Safety By Cathy Pearl

---

¹     Eric was ready to go for his first bike ride alone. He was getting ready to leave when his mom came out of the house.
 
²     "Wait a minute," she said. "Where is your helmet?"
 
³     "I don't want to wear a helmet," Eric said. "It makes my hair look funny. It makes me look funny, too. All my friends will laugh."
 
⁴     "I don't care if your friends will laugh. You are not going for a bike ride without a helmet."
 
⁵     "Why do I need a helmet?"
 
⁶     "A helmet keeps your head safe. If you are in an accident, it protects your head."
 
⁷     "I won't get in an accident, Mom. I am a good rider."
 
⁸     "I know you are," she said with a smile. "I'm worried about all the people who drive the cars. I can't make sure they are paying attention, so I have to help keep you safe."
