Listen and read along with the story.

The stretchy suit covered most of Bella's orange fur, but the cape didn't hide her tail. And the mask didn't hide her pointy ears. Would anyone recognize her?

Then, she heard a voice cry, "Help!"

Jumping up, Bella meowed, "Supercat to the rescue!"

question

Listen and read along with the story.

Clouds floated across the blue sky, and a gentle breeze blew through the forest. Red and yellow leaves drifted down from the trees.

Which picture better matches the setting?

key idea

When you read a story, think about how the words and pictures work together. Both can tell you about the story's setting and its main character.

The setting is where and when a story happens. For example, a story could happen at school in the morning or at a park in the winter.

The main character is the most important person, animal, or thing in a story. For example, Peter Rabbit and Cinderella are the main characters in their stories.
