Read the story Easy English
Pip was a little yellow mouse who lived in a cozy hole under a big oak tree. Pip loved to play all day and look for yummy seeds. One sunny morning, Pip woke up and stretched his tiny paws. Outside his door, he heard soft sad meows coming from the grass. Pip tiptoed through the grass to see what made the noise. In a hidden den, he found a tired mommy cat and three hungry little kittens.
Pip wanted to help the hungry feline family. He ran back to his cozy home and looked inside his secret pantry. Pip had many delicious seeds and sweet berries stored there. He carefully gathered the food and put it into a small leaf basket. The basket was heavy, but Pip pulled it with all his might across the grass back to the hidden den. Pip gently pushed the leaf basket toward the hungry cats.
The mommy cat looked up with wide surprise, and Pip offered the yummy food to them with a smile. The tiny kittens sniffed the berries and ate happily. Mommy cat gave Pip a soft thank you. Pip felt warm and happy inside as he watched his new friends eat. When the sun set, Pip walked home, snuggled into bed, and fell asleep with a full heart.
