Groundhog's Day Off Worksheets

by Robb Pearlman

Lexile AD550L · ATOS 3.1

Every year on one special day in February, crowds of locals, tourists, reporters and even the mayor gather outside, but all they ever ask Groundhog about is the weather, like "Are there going to be six more weeks of winter?" So Groundhog leaves a note, packs his robe, slippers, magazines and shadow, and heads for the spa, and the mayor holds auditions for a new groundhog. Elephant is just too big, Ostrich gets the whole thing backward, and Puppy has stage fright. A funny Groundhog Day story about wanting to be noticed for who you are.
