Retell the story.
One day, I was with my friends. We were having a picnic in a field and I saw something strange. There was a white cat with a pink nose sitting in a tree. There’s nothing strange about that, of course, but it looked like it was eating the leaves in the tree! That was strange! Cats don’t usually eat leaves. “Maybe it’s very hungry,” I thought.
While I was looking at it, the cat got out of the tree, jumped down to the ground and walked across the field and sat next to us. Maybe it wanted some of our picnic to eat, but there was nothing for a cat. The cat got up and came close to me. I talked to it and it smiled at me.
Was it a Cheshire Cat? I found some biscuits in my pocket and gave them to the cat. Soon, it was eating biscuits and smiling at us. Then, after a while, the cat got up and walked across the field. Maybe it wasn’t hungry any more.

…
It was a Friday evening. I was waiting at the bus stop after school when a car stopped and the driver opened the door. It was my father. “Quick, get in!” he told me. I was very surprised, but I did as he said. At first, I was worried that something bad happened. Then, I noticed my mother.
…
She was also in the car and on the back seat, there were some bags of clothes and some food. My father was driving out of the town. “Where are we going?” I asked. It was a warm evening and lots of people were walking along the road. It was the last day of term.
…
Did my parents have a big surprise for me? We were going somewhere special—but where? The next thing I could remember was falling asleep. When I woke up, I saw the sea. We were at the beach. My father was smiling. “Here we are,” he said. The summer holiday started!
