Time to venture above from way down below. From the bottom of the hole Cole decided to roam. On the side of the hole, Cole the mole had to climb. Leaving the bottom of the hole far behind. The top of the hole was where Cole had his sights, and he had to admit it was so very bright! Getting closer, although slowly, Cole would surely pull through.

Travel above wasn’t really his style. Name: ______________ Date: ______________

Around the hole one more time and then he was done. Time to set forth and walk away from his home. Jump over the hole then twenty steps was the goal. To the north he would travel, but of course moles are slow. Now Cole was prepared and so ready to go. As he counted to ten (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10) he thought, “halfway there.” Cole the Mole felt the freedom of the wind in his hair. Without a care he kept walking (11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20) not really sure where. Reaching his goal, Cole felt alert and aware. Name: ______________ Date: ______________

He had seen the wide world and you know what this meant. He could now tell the story to all of his friends. The story of “his minute” above ground that he’d spent. Cole dove back in and he welcomed the cold. After all, the hot sun is tiring for a mole. No regrets will be mentioned when the story is told, and perhaps it will inspire other moles to be bold. This was the hope of our brave mole named Cole, that others would venture up top from below. Name: ______________ Date: ______________

Cole will tell the night moon when the day is done, that he met the sun and he had a good run. Back at the bottom, Cole’s adventure is done. As far as moles go, Cole’s a very brave one.
