It was a hot August day.Joey and his sister Jenny played soccer in their front yard.Ruben and Rebecca joined them.
"Over here!" shouted Ruben. Joey kicked the ball to Ruben.It rolled into the busy street, and Ruben started to chase it.
"Watch out, Ruben!" Joey shouted. Just then, a car whizzed by.
The car hit the soccer ball and popped it.
"There are more cars on our street all the time!" said Ruben.
"It's harder to cross the street to get to school, too," said Jenny.
"Or to Mr. Lupois' market," said Rebecca.
''Last week, Mrs. Murphy's dog Lucy got hit by a car.Lucy has a broken leg," said Joey.
A few nights later, Joey and Jenny talked to their parents.
"We’ve been doing our research," said Jenny."We think there should be stop signs at the corner. That will slow traffic and make it safer to cross our street."
"Stop signs are a great idea," said Mom. "You’ve been counting cars before and after school?"
"Yes," said Joey. "Also, Ruben has a camera. He's been taking pictures of people trying to cross."
"Good work!" said Dad. "The next step is a petition."
