Jimmy Lives in America

Jimmy lives in America, in a little town near the ocean. He has a father, a mother and a sister. His sister's name is Polly. They live in a little white house. Polly is a big girl and she goes to school. But Jimmy does not go to school; he is only six years old. Polly can read and write, but Jimmy cannot. All day long he plays either with his friends or with his toys. He has many different toys. He often gets presents from his parents.

But Jimmy is not a very good boy. He is lazy and sometimes tells lies. His sister calls him Simple Simon. Because he does not know the simplest things. Though Jimmy's little friend, Lily, thinks that he is very clever.
