Pico and the Mysterious Library Book

Pico: Oh no, I can’t find the library book! I borrowed it for story time, but now it’s gone. Have you seen it? Please help me.

Lina: Maybe it’s in your backpack. Let’s look together. Did you put it on your desk, under your chair, or next to your notebook?

Pico: I looked in my backpack. There is my pencil case, my snack, and my water bottle, but no book. I really need to find it.

Lina: Don’t worry. We can search slowly. Look behind the table, on the shelf, and under the desk. Sometimes books hide in funny places.

Pico: You’re right. I see a book under the shelf! Wait, no, that is not mine. Mine is blue, with a star on the cover.

Lina: Let’s ask the librarian. You can say, Can you help me? I can’t find my book. That is a polite way to ask.

Pico: Hello, can you help me? I borrowed a blue book, and now I can’t find it. Have you seen it near the desk?

Lina: I remember! You put it on the return table after story time. Go ahead, Pico. There it is! Great job looking and asking for help.
