It was a very hot day in the middle of summer, and there were no trees along the street. Mr. Read had another bad day: for the whole day no one had come to his small shop to buy anything. He closed his shop at half past five, and went out into the street and began walking to the bus stop. He was very fat. The sun shone straight down the street, and in a few minutes Mr. Read felt hot.

A small boy came out of another shop in the street and followed Mr. Read. He stayed very near him all the time, and he stepped on Mr. Read’s shoes several times. Mr. Read looked at him angrily each time.

After the fourth time, Mr. Read stopped, turned round and said to the boy, “What are you doing? Stop following me like that! You’re going to hurt my feet.”

“I’m sorry, but don’t stop me, please!” The small boy said. “It’s very hot today, and there isn’t any shade anywhere else in the street!”
