Henry and Mudge and the Forever Sea
To the Beach
It was summer vacation and Henry and his big dog Mudge were going to the beach.
Mudge had never been to the beach.
Henry promised he would like it.
“You'll like the waves,” he said. “And the sand castles.
And the shells. But don't drink the water!” he warned. “Too salty!”
They went in the car with Henry's father.
In Henry's bag were green goggles, a yellow bucket, an orange shovel, and a dump truck.
In Mudge's bag were a blue bowl, a jug of water, half of a bone, and a tennis ball.
In Henry's father's bag were a book about shells, six towels, and a red rubber lobster he liked to bring along.
They sang sea songs all the way.
Henry's father said “Yo-ho-ho” about a hundred times.
Henry acted like a shark. Mudge just wagged.
They couldn't wait to get there.
The Forever Sea
“I see it!” Henry shouted. The ocean was waiting.
It was blue and white and forever.
Henry's father honked the car horn. Mudge barked.
They parked the car and ran for the sand.
Mudge got there first. He ran right into the water. SPLASH!
Henry was second. SPLASH!
Henry's father was third. SPLASH!
The white foam rushed around their legs. They laughed and hopped and ran.
A big wave knocked Henry down. He rolled all the way back to shore.
“Wow,” said Henry. He got up and ran back in.
Henry's father rode a wave like he was a surfboard.
He rode it all the way back to shore.
“Wow,” he said. He got up and ran back in.
Mudge was not as brave as Henry and Henry's father.
He just ran along the edge. He stayed out of the big waves.
But still he got so wet that he looked like a whale with legs.
They all played a long time.
Brave Dog
For lunch, Henry and Mudge and Henry's father walked to a hot dog stand.
