Fred and Ted were friends. Ted was small. They were going on a trip. Fred put a new part
on his green airplane. Ted checked the oil
in his red airplane. Ted checked the oil
in his red airplane.

Fred pushed his airplane
onto the runway. Ted pulled his airplane
onto the runway. Fred stepped into his green airplane. Ted jumped into his red airplane. Fred flew right-side up. Ted flew upside down.

Fred saw a good place to land. Ted saw a better place to land. Ted landed down on the sand. Sand! Sand! Everywhere! Fred landed
up on a tree! They sat on the beach. Ted was in the shade. They went surfing. Ted used a long board. Fred used a short board. Fred used a short board.

When they reached the shore, Ted fell down. Fred stayed up. They made sand castles. Fred made a small one. Ted made a big one.
