Brent's playdate plans suddenly change but his dad helps him have a good day anyway.
Narrator: Male
Story Begins: 4:09
Playground Plans Excerpt:
Today, Brent was going to meet his friend Billy at the park. They had agreed on meeting in the morning before the park got busy because it would be quieter.
Brent had been thinking about the playdate all night long. He thought about how they could play follow-the-leader again. He thought about climbing on the jungle gym. He thought about searching for bugs under rocks. But most of all, he thought about talking to Billy, because Billy always listened to Brent’s favorite facts about trains, bugs, and weather.
