My little sister

I’ve got a sister. Her name is Kate. She’s three. She has got many toys: four balls — red, green, blue and yellow; three puppies — black, white and grey; two brown monkeys, a yellow giraffe, a white bear and two nice dolls. Do you think she likes to play with her toys? No, she doesn’t. What she does like is — she likes to play hide-and-seek with me. Do you know the way she does it. She hides under the table and says: «Helen, where am I?» I say: «Are you on the chair?» «No, I’m not» «Are you under the chair?» «No, try again.» «Oh, Kate, I try and try again, but I can’t see you!» Then she runs up to me and says: «Here I am!». This is the way my little sister Kate plays hide-and-seek. Isn’t she funny?
