Before we get into the story, do you want to know a fun fact? Did you know? that not just any corn kernel can become popcorn.

Popcorn is a special type of corn kernel that expands and puffs up when it gets heated. When you heat up a popcorn kernel, the water inside the kernel turns to steam, creating pressure and causing the kernel to pop. Pretty cool, huh? Okay, story time. Today, we are going to read, If You Take a Mouse to the Movies by Laura Numeroff. If you take a mouse to the movies,

he'll ask you for some popcorn. When you give him the popcorn, he'll want to string it all together. Then, he'll want to hang it on a Christmas tree. You'll have to buy him one. On the way home, he'll see a snowman in your neighbor's yard. He'll want to make one of his own. Then he'll need a carrot for a nose.

When he's all finished, he'll decide to build a fort. He'll ask you to help him. Then he'll want to make some snowballs and have a snowball fight. Playing outside will make him cold. He'll want to go inside and curl up on the couch. He'll ask you for a blanket. Once he's nice and cozy, he'll want to listen to Christmas carols. You'll have to find some on the radio.

He'll probably sing along. The carols will remind him of his Christmas tree, so he'll want to make some ornaments. You'll get him some paper and glue. He'll ask you for glitter. When the ornaments are done, he'll hang them all up. Then he'll stand back to look at the tree. He'll notice his popcorn string is missing. So he'll want to make another one.

He'll ask you for some popcorn. And chances are, when you give him the popcorn, he'll want you to take him to the movies. The end. Don't forget to stick around to see if you can answer today's paying attention question. Before you go, do you think you can answer today's paying attention question? Mouse used three different supplies to make his ornaments for his tree. He used paper and glue.

Do you remember the third supply he used? If your answer was, glitter? You did it! Great job! You sure were paying attention! I hope you enjoyed that story! I wonder what we're going to read next!
