THE SAILOR DOG (2)

But on the beach was lots and lots of driftwood, and he found an old rusty box stuck in the sand.

Maybe it was a treasure !

It was treasureーto Scuppers.
It was an old-fashioned tool box with hammers and nails and an ax and a saw.
Everything he needed to build  himself a house.

So Scuppers started to build a house, all by himself, out of driftwood.
He built a door and a window and roof and porch and floor, all out of driftwood.

And he found some red bricks and built a big red  chimney. And then he lit a fire, and the smoke went up the chimney.

Then the stars came out, and he was sleepy.
So he built a bed of pine branches.

And he jumped into his deep green bed and went he jumped into his deep green bed and went to sleep.
As he slept he dreamedーif he could build a house, he could mend the hole in the ship.

So the next day at low tide he took his tool box and waded out and hammered planks across the hole in his ship.
At last the ship was fixed.

So he sailed away.

Until he came to a seaport in a foreign land.
