Where Is Flo’s Boot?
It’s match day, but Flo can only find one boot. Where could it be?
It was match day! Flo woke up early and pulled on her shirt. But where was her left boot? She had one boot. Only one boot!
Flo looked under the bed. No boot. She looked in the cupboard. No boot. She even looked in the shoe box. Just one very surprised sock.
Outside, Finn the panda came bouncing along the path. ‘Why the long face?’ asked Finn. ‘I can’t find my boot,’ sighed Flo. ‘Let’s look together!’
They looked high and low. Finn peeked this way. Flo peeked that way. Then Finn gave a great big gasp. ‘Look! Look!’
There was the missing boot, inside the laundry basket! ‘Maybe it wanted a nap!’ giggled Finn. Flo laughed so hard she got the hiccups.
Flo laced up both boots, tie, tie, tie, and the two friends raced off to Rainbow Rec. They arrived just as the whistle was about to blow.
Flo played the best game ever. Both boots on, both feet happy. And after the game, Flo put her boots right by the door, side by side.
