Chapter 1 City Kid
"It's so dull in the country," said Juan."What do you do here all day?"
"Sometimes I play tennis or go horseback riding," his cousin Luisa answered.
Juan smiled. "Can we go horseback riding, Uncle Pedro?" he asked Luisa's dad.
"Not by yourselves," Pedro said. "Please," Juan begged."If you prevent us from going, we'll be bored and bother you."
Pedro laughed. "Okay, city kid.We'll have to get saddles on the horses first."
Luisa put on a raincoat. She handed another one to Juan.
"I am not wearing that smelly old thing," Juan said. "What good is it?"
Luisa looked up. A few dark clouds moved across the sky.
"Well, it's up to you, but I would wear it."
Juan folded his arms. He wouldn't wear it.
"I think you should ride Sadie," Luisa said."She's nice and gentle."
Juan looked at the horse and shook his head."You mean she's slow," he said.He walked over to a shiny black stallion."I want to ride this one," he said.
"Beware, city kid," Pedro warned as he entered the stable."Shadow is a beautiful horse, but he gets upset easily."
"I can handle him, Uncle Pedro," Juan said.
The three riders took off over the grasslands.Shadow began to trot.
"Yee-ha," yelled Juan, as he bumped up and down in the saddle.
"He'll be sore tomorrow," Pedro whispered to Luisa.
A few raindrops hit Luisa's coat.
"Dad, did you feel that?" she said.
"I think we're about to get wet.The wind is picking up, too.Maybe we should turn back," Pedro said."Juan! Wait! Come back!"
Juan tried to slow his horse as Luisa and Pedro trotted toward him.
Chapter 2 The Storm
The wind began to howl.Long blades of grass swished and swayed.
They watched as a bush broke free of its roots.It flew through the air and landed on the dirt.
"This is wild," Juan said."The wind just uprooted that bush!"
Pedro turned his horse toward home."Everyone, home! Now!" he yelled.
