Last week, Harry had a fright. He went to bed early and was sitting
on his bed to read a horror story about a haunted house. Suddenly
he heard a strange noise. It was coming from above him. It sounded
like footsteps in the attic. He called his father to come and listen to
the noise. His father came into his room and listened carefully.

“Harry it’s only birds that have nested in the attic!”
