Check Your Batteries Day

Reading Comprehension for April 2

"I need new batteries for my video game," Brandon said, making a beeline for the display.


Mom raised her eyebrows and tried to maneuver the cart into the tight area. "Again?"


"Yeah. I couldn't get it to work on the way to school today."


"Do you know what size batteries you need?"


"They are double As," said Brandon, picking up a package of eight batteries.


Mom walked over to the display. At the top of the display was a sign that read, "April 3rd is CHECK YOUR BATTERIES DAY." "Hmm," said Mom. "That's today!"


A store clerk walked over to Mom and Brandon. "Can I help you find something?"

"Well, let me know if I can help you," said the clerk. Then he turned and left.
