Tommy wanted a skateboard badly. Sometimes he would stay after school just to watch the older boys do tricks on the stairs. Tommy thought that it looked like so much fun to grind
down rails and kickflip over gaps. He imagined performing jaw-dropping tricks on the
landmarks he passed on his way home. After months of saving money and begging his
grandma, Tommy finally got a skateboard. With a beaming grin across his face, Tommy ran to
his driveway and tried one of the tricks that he had imagined. As Tommy put his first foot on
his skateboard, the skateboard slid out from under him and he fell on his butt. Tommy broke
out into tears. That was the last time that Tommy rode a skateboard.
