One sunny day, Vinny the Action Verb sat in the Grammaropolis park. He loved to take action, so he never sat still for long.
Then he saw it. An ice cream cart started to down the big grassy hill, all by itself. "Fear not!" Vinny cried, and he hopped to his feet.
Vinny began to after the cart. He had to across the soft grass as fast as he could. A duck tried to out of the way. A happy dog wanted to along too.
The cart rolled faster and faster. Vinny had to over a park bench and past a big tree.
At the bottom of the hill, Vinny reached out to the cart with both hands. He caught it just in time, and not one scoop fell.
Vinny took a deep bow for the cheering crowd. "Admit it. You had fun."
