Chapter five

The hollow tree

Page 28 and 29

Page 28 and 29 Sophia is cold and wet from the wind and rain. She shoves her hands deep into her jacket pocket and jumps as she suddenly feels something warm against her cold fingers... She pulls the matchbox out of her jacket pocket. The box is warm and glows against her cold hands! Carefully she pushes open the matchbox and through the small gap she spies inside three little insects crawling around in a fiery red glow. 'GLOWWORMS!' Sophia cries happily. 'I've captured glowworms!' and quickly she closes the matchbox before the glowworms can escape.

After half an hour Peter's glass jar is full and he calls to Sophia to go back to the tent. Sophia doesn't answer. Peter looks under the bushes, behind the trees and keeps calling Sophia's name, but Sophia still doesn't answer. 'She must have gone back to the tent' Peter says hopefully and rubs at his grumbling tummy. He calls one more time, looks one more time into the forest, then turns and quickly runs along the gravel path, back to the camping.
