The Pink Rocks of Brittany
Joy walked on the wet sand. The big sea waves made a soft sound.
She looked at the giant rocks. They were not gray.
The rocks were a bright, pretty pink. They looked like sweet rose petals.
Joy wanted to play a game. She wanted to find shapes in the stone.
She looked at a very tall rock. It had two round bumps on top.
"That looks like a giant bear!" Joy said. She waved her hand at the stone bear.
Next, she saw a long, flat rock. It sat near the blue water.
"That is a sleeping fish," Joy whispered. She did not want to wake it up.
The wind blew her hair. The sun made the pink rocks shine.
Joy found a small, round stone. It fit right in her hand.
It was smooth and warm from the sun. It looked like a little pink egg.
"I will keep this safe," Joy said. She put the warm stone in her pocket.
She loved the pink coast of Brittany. It was a magical place to explore.
