Little pig. Take it easy!

Okay, dad!

Whee! [ Giggling ]

Whoa! Oh...

Whoa...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, pig, you cannot play like this.

You have to stop running around so fast.

You might get hurt.

[ Sigh/whine ]

Pig, what's wrong?

My dad says I can't run around so fast

Because I could get hurt.

But I really, really want to keep playing!

I don't know what to do!

This sounds like a super big problem.

And a super big problem needs us,

Onward, super readers!

[ ♪♪ ]

This path is so rocky!

We can't let him run on such a rocky path!

Oh, split pea!

It's much too dangerous!

And there's a great big giant rock up there!

Oh my chinny chin-chin!

Stop, gingerbread boy, stop!

Oh, but I can't stop.

I have to go fast!

It says so, right here in my story! See?

Gingerbread boy has to stop running so fast!

He'll get hurt!

How can we stop him?

Super why to the rescue!

With the power to read,

I can change this story and save the day!

Let's change the word "fast"

In this sentence.

Zap it with me!

Z-zap!

Why writer, write!

Super readers, we need an opposite.

Which word is the opposite of "fast"?

Children: slow!

"Slow" is the opposite of "fast"!

Which is the word "slow"?

It starts with an "s".

Children: there!

There it is!

Let's zap it into the sentence!

Z-zap!

Let's read.

Whoa! Big rock!

Wow, going slow kept me

From tripping over that rock and getting hurt!

Did going slow help gingerbread boy?

Children: yes!

Yes!

Super job, super readers!

We changed the story

And now the gingerbread boy won't get hurt!

Walk, walk and step with joy,

You can catch me,

I'm the gingerbread boy!

[ Triumphant ♪♪ ]

But... Why?

Red: because when gingerbread boy

Was slow and careful, he didn't get hurt!

So my question is:

What should I do if I really want

To keep playing in the playground?

And the answer is...

All: be careful!

Be careful!

That's what my dad wants me to do.

I need to be careful

And stop running around so fast.

Thanks, super readers!

Let's go back to the playground!

Dad!

Whyatt and I are going to go play.

All right, pig. But please...

I know!

I need to be careful so I don't get hurt.

By the hair of my chinny chin-chin,

That's right, son!

That's my motto. Be careful!
