And maybe I will turn it into an adventure.

Are you ready for this one?

Me too! Let's go! Today Asher was at the beach. Who else likes going to the beach? Me, me too.

Asher loved going to the beach and building sand castles and playing in the sand and splashing

in the water and watching crabs run around. It was a super fun place. And this

morning before they all went to the beach his dad was painting and all of a sudden he looked and said

to Asher have you seen my paintbrush I think it's missing

hmm all right let me look

Asher began to look all over, but the painting brush was gone.

What?

That was our best one. What in the world?

Then Asher saw something that he knew exactly what it was he saw little footprints. These were not footprints from people.

Nope. These footprints were from crabs.

Cras!

Oh my gosh, there was a crab here!

Do you think he took the paintbrush?

No, I don't think a crab would do that.
