Jamal sat under the big oak tree. The grass was soft. The sky was blue. He read his book, nice and quiet.
But wait! Something wiggled on the page. The letter D popped right up! It jiggled. It jumped. It started to DANCE!
"D-d-d!" said the letter D. It tapped its feet. It shook and swayed. The grass turned into a bouncy dance floor!
Waddle, waddle, waddle! Two yellow ducks came to dance. They dipped down low. They dipped up high. "Dip, dip, dip!" went the ducks.
"D-d-d!" Can you say it? D-d-d! The ducks dipped and dipped. What a dizzy, dipping dance!
Ruff, ruff! A spotted dog ran in. The dog had a drum! Boom, boom, boom! "Drum, drum, drum!" went the dog.
"D-d-d!" Can you drum it? D-d-d! The dog drummed. The ducks dipped. The dance floor went boom, boom, boom!
STOMP, STOMP, STOMP! Oh my! A friendly dinosaur walked up. It was big. It was green. And it loved to do dizzy spins! "Dizzy, dizzy, dizzy!" laughed the dinosaur.
"D-d-d!" Can you spin it? D-d-d! The dinosaur spun dizzy. The dog drummed. The ducks dipped. Everyone danced!
Everyone looked at Jamal. "Dance with us!" they called. Jamal smiled. He took a deep breath. Then Jamal did his own cool, calm move — a slow, smooth dip and a soft little spin.
"D-d-d!" cheered everyone. Ducks dipped. Dogs drummed. The dinosaur spun. And Jamal grooved, nice and easy. Even quiet kids can dance!
The sun went down. The dance was done. The letter D hopped back into the book. Jamal hugged his book and smiled. "What a delightful day," he whispered. D-d-d!
