Reading - Write About an Experience with an Animal (page 138)

Monday, October 3

I've had my African gray parrot for about three years. His name is Frank. He's gray, except for his red tail. His eyes are yellow.

I've been talking to Frank for three years, but in all this time he hasn't talked.

Last night all of that changed. I was reading in bed. All of a sudden I heard, "Hi Bao!" I glanced over, and Frank was staring at me. Then he said it again, "Hi, Bao!" I answered him: "Hi, Frank!" He was quiet. I reached over to turn off my bedside lamp. Just then I heard Frank's voice again. "Goodnight!" he said.
