6. ThiriHello, Sprout! You look sad.
7. SproutI want the sun, please.
8. ThiriI know a sunny place. Come with me!
9. NarratorThiri lifted the pot. They walked past the door and past the coats.
10. ThiriHere is the window. Look!
11. NarratorYellow light fell on Sprout's leaves. It was warm. It was bright.
12. SproutOh! The sun! I feel so happy!
13. NarratorThiri put the pot on the window sill and gave Sprout a little drink.
14. ThiriNow you can stay here every day.
15. SproutThank you, Thiri. This is my best place!
16. NarratorBy the end of the week, Sprout had two new green leaves. Sprout looked up at the sun and smiled.
