P. 3
CHAPTER THREE
Days went by, and Tim waited anxiously for his dinosaur egg to hatch. He took
care of it every day, keeping it warm and making sure it did not fall off the top
of his cupboard where he was keeping it. Finally, one day, he saw a small crack
on the egg, then another, and another and a tiny little paw came out of the
shell. As Tim watched in amazement, more of the dinosaur started to emerge
from the egg. First came the legs, then the body, and finally the head. The baby
dinosaur looked up at Tim with big, curious eyes, and Tim felt his heart swell
with joy.
He carefully picked up the baby dinosaur and held it in his hands. The dinosaur
was small and fragile, but Tim knew that he had a big responsibility to take
care of his new pet dinosaur, Tim had set up a warm, cosy spot for his new
baby dinosaur to sleep. He had read books about how to take care of baby
dinosaurs, so he knew exactly what to do. He fed the dinosaur a special
formula that he had bought from the pet store, and the baby dinosaur eagerly
drank it up.
Tim spent the next few days taking care of the baby dinosaur. He made sure
that it was warm and comfortable, and he fed it every few hours. He even sang
lullabies to the dinosaur to help it fall asleep.
