A story about What causes a tornado?
for your Kindergartener.
Cactus Cody rode across the wide, sunny plains. The grass danced around his horse’s hooves. He loved the soft wind on his face.
Not far behind, Brutus trotted. He was a purple warthog with a big grin. He loved telling jokes and making funny snorts.
They galloped together across the fields. The horse’s saddle gleamed in the bright sun, and they felt free as birds.
Suddenly, dark clouds rolled in. “Look at that!” said Cactus Cody. “That twisty wind is a tornado!”
Brutus squealed, “Oh dear, that is scary!” Cody said, “Let’s find shelter right away.” They hurried behind a sturdy fence.
The twister spun in the sky. Warm air and cold air were playing a big windy game, making the funnel swirl and spin.
Cactus Cody stayed calm. He said, “We should crouch low and keep away from flying dirt. Listen to that wind roar!”
Brutus giggled nervously. “I’ll tell a goofy joke to feel better!” he said. His little snort cheered them up, even in the storm.
