Our first book today is called Eleanor and violet two naughty chickens at the beach Oh naughty chickens at the beach. They might have done some bad things will have to read about that. This is by Patti belling Murphy he's too friend chickens violet was back and Eleanor's mother was not happy.

B

Eleanor was I, don't think. Violet is a very good influence on you. You two girls got into a lot of mischief during violets visit to her grandmother's last summer, said her mother, not her again. Moaned Eleanor's sisters ray we're together again saying Eleanor and violet violet is fun, declared Eleanor. She has many good ideas, they're so excited to see each other.

B

You know said: Eleanor's, mother, you don't have to do everything that violet says. If you know it's not right. Just tell her. It's not a good idea, but it was hard to say no to violet. Besides. Eleanor was not sure that she wanted to so they reset Eleanor's sisters, alarm clock to go off at three a.m. in the morning. They died their clothes purple with easter egg dye for purple day and they play dress-up with Eleanor's sisters and decorate him with special indelible markers. That means markers that won't come off. Look.

B

They drew all over them.

B

Eleanor and violet scooted through the neighbor's garden on their scooters, snapping off flower heads to make flower soup had masks on their bandits.

B

The girls collect a change from under the cushions in the house and they bought large slingshots and used them on the other chickens. Violet had learned many new bad words. She shared them with Eleanor. She taught Eleanor how to burp loudly whenever she wanted to. It was very useful.

B

They ate the cookies that Eleanor's mother was saving for her book club and they frosted cupcakes, with shaving cream Eleanor had to sit in the timeout corner. Once again, she got in trouble one Saturday morning. Violet said we are going to have a grand adventure today have an idea, a very good idea, a very, very good idea. The girls ran down the street hurry up, said violet. We have to catch a bus. Where are we going s? Telenor? That said, violet is a surprise.

B

Eleanor felt nervous, but violet began singing the ants go marching one by one: hurrah hurrah in her best opera voice and Eleanor joined loudly.

B

After a long bus ride, they came to their stop. Eleanor could not believe her eyes. They were at the beach come on, said, violet we're going swimming.

B

Eleanor felt sick, we don't have bathing, suits she mumbled. So what said violet will swim in our clothes and pretend to be dolphins. This said Elinor in a shaky voice is not a good idea. Violet narrowed her eyes at Eleanor, no said Elinor in a tiny voice. Not this time. We need to have a grown-up with us to swim, violet glowered at her. Just then another girl bounded up to them. Hi, I'm, Lulu hi, said violet. Are you here, swimming by yourself, sure? Am.

B

See said violet to Eleanor Eleanor, just looked at the sand come on said Lulu last one in is a rotten egg, don't be a chicken said violet, but Eleanor just shook her head, Eleanor watched violet and her new friend cavort in the waves. She felt sad.

B

After a while, she decided to have a good time on her own. She performed a lovely Beach ballet for her fellow sunbathers. She collected crabs and carefully put them on people's Beach blankets, but it wasn't any fun without violet.

B

Help screamed violet have screamed Lulu, they ran onto the beach yelling, we've been attacked by a sea monster.

B

Eleanor rushed to the two girls: it's a sneeze snake, slobbed Lulu, it's just seaweed Eleanor side as she untangled the green slippery mess from the girls legs. A large chicken came over and scooped up. Lulu. Are you okay, sweetie? Yes, mama Lulu sniffed, not looking at Eleanor and violet time to go home anyway said whose mother as she walked away, carrying Lulu.

B

Mama said Elinor and violet at the same time, so much for the brave girl swimming alone said violet. She wasn't that much fun anyway, not like you, Eleanor I'm. Sorry, it's okay said Elinor things weren't the same without you either smiling the girls selected the friskies crab and put him in an empty yogurt container with a bit of water and brought him home on the bus ride back violet made up a song about underwear which they sang in rounds.

B

They finally arrived at Eleanor's house looking hot and bedraggled Eleanor's mother gasped and asked: where have you been? We went to the beach said Elinor, but don't worry, I didn't swim, I told violet. It wasn't a good idea.

B

You did, did you said Eleanor's mother, yes said Elinor and I'm. Sorry I didn't tell you where we were going me too said violet softly and look here's our new pet crab. Her me Eleanor said, and he has to live at our house because violets grandmother doesn't allow pets. Oh joy said Eleanor's, mother after violent went home to change. Eleanor's mother hugged her. You did the right thing, but it was wrong of you to leave without telling me I know said: Elinor.

B

It's going to be a long summer, Eleanor's mother's side, hooray, the girls shouted and they played in the pool together the end that is, the story of Eleanor and violet. Two naughty chickens at the beach I. Hope you liked that one! Well, they brought home a crab.

Hi welcome back to once upon a time the story time show of the San Bruno public library, we're reading Beach stories. Today. Our next book is called miles away from home by Joan coddled, and this is the dog named miles.

B

Let's see what happens to miles at the beach one day, miles saw an ad for a vacation house. In the morning paper. Dad saw the ad too, and now here we are thought miles. This will be the best vacation ever miles, reviewed water safety rules and made good use of his new whistle miles. Christina and Peter Road perfect waves, his family, built in an enormous sandcastle miles, was in charge of the moat. He liked to help. There is digging the moat miles, helped other people too.

B

He put up umbrellas even when it was windy, inspected, picnic, lunches for all four food groups and even protected children against harmful UV rays, miles liked to make new friends but sometimes miles wasn't such a help. He broken umbrella, he ate a picnic lunch and he used up all of the number 30 sunblock miles felt bad. He hated getting in trouble.

B

So he tried his best to be good. He played with the kids, he was a natural at frisbee. He helped mom with the cooking marinades were his favorite, he assisted dad with the BBQ ribs were his specialty. He helped get the kids ready for bed. Mom read and miles turned the pages. Things were just fine.

B

Mild spent the next morning surfing with his family, and then he went for ice cream miles love to share, but he miscalculated how much 20 orange freezy pops would cost. He didn't have enough money miles felt awful. He was in trouble again, so he tried to be on his best behavior. He played go fish and he let the kids win. He did the laundry darks, encode, whites and hot. He reviewed hurricane evacuation procedures and he checked all the batteries in the flashlights. He brushed his teeth before bed. He even flossed miles felt much better.

B

The next day miles and his family went to the Oceanside putt-putt course miles excelled at miniature golf. He had a steady paw and a good eye. He even gave dad a few tips on the last hole. He helped Peter with a tricky shot, but he misjudged the wind speed and direction the ball bounced off. Zippy a boy's pet turtle, whacked a man on the head and splashed into a lady's soda. That dog should be in a kennel said. The manager, but I was only trying to help thought miles miles felt terrible that night.

B

He skipped dessert and went to bed early. Maybe I should be in a kennel thought miles miles, curled up with dad slippers and tried to get some sleep. He tossed and turned he dreamed about the kennel, the kennel, smelly, wet cement, floors box, with no keys roommates named spike and even worse, lonely nights without his family.

B

No one to tuck me in thought miles. No one to scratch. My tummy I would be all alone the next morning. Miles didn't feel like swimming. He stayed behind on his towel. Maybe this isn't a great vacation. After all, he stared out at the ocean. He saw a lady in the water and suddenly she grabbed her leg. Ouch said the lady, my leg, oh no thought miles. She has a cramp. She needs help miles, knew what he had to do. He blew his whistle.

B

He grabbed a flotation device sprinted across the beach and jumped into the surf. He swam freestyle he swam back stroke. He pulled that lady to the shore. It was a perfect rescue and everyone knew it even miles. Miles became an honorary lifeguard and he got to sit in the lifeguard chair. His family threw a big party to celebrate.

B

It was the best vacation ever and that is the story of miles away from home by Joan coddle. They ended up having a good time at the beach. Didn't they alright. Let's do a little finger play together. We're going to make some binoculars like this. Let me see you make your binoculars. Oh, very good, all right, we're going to say: I went to the beach and what did I see a bird on the sand.

B

Looking at me, I went to the beach and what did I see a fish in the water splashing at me, I went to the beach and what did I see a shell in the sand. Sparkling up at me, I went to the beach and what did I see a crab in its shell waving its hands at me very good. You did a good job with that.
