Once there was a little nina. She loved to play with hojas. One day while she was playing, she lifted a leaf up, and found a mapa. She looked at it and there was a circolo on it. She told her mama about it. Her mama told her, "put it in the trash nina! We don't want this house messy!" So she went over to the trash, and when her mama wasn't looking, she folded it up, and put it in her pocket. She went outside and looked at her tranangulo roof. She saw a rojo circulo on her roof! She got her papa's ladder and climbed up."Wow! A apple, on the roof!" she said."Nina!Supper time!" she heard her mama calling. "Nina! Get off the roof! What is that rojo circolo? Get down!""yes mama!" she called. She took the apple and saw another on the hill! She quickly ate supper and came back outside. She went on the hill and got that rojo apple."Nina! Bed!"mama called. "But mama!"she whinned. "You may play again tomorrow!" mama called back.

The next day she forgot about the mapa. Was the mapa a dream? she thought. But she was wearing no pajamas and she was wearing the same clothes as 'the dream'. So, she felt the mapa when she reached in her pocket. She forgot that her mama didn't want her to have it, but she showed her mama!"Mama!The mapa! I have a mapa! MAMA!" she yelled. Her mama came running down the hall and took the mapa and ripped it! "Mama! Mama that is spetial!"nina whinned. She ran to her room and slammed her door, and cried.
