Candle Light

Written by Sandy Rei.

One night at tea-time all the lights went out. There was a power cut.	
Tom quickly went to look for a candle and matches.	
Mum and Tom ate their dinner in the candle light. "This is fun," said Tom.	
Later on when Tom was getting ready for bed, he took the candle to the bathroom.	
He brushed his teeth. Just then the lights came on again.	
"Oh Mum," said Tom. "I liked the candle light. I don't want to blow my candle out."	
Mum smiled. "You can have a candle," she said. Then she read Tom a story in the candle light.	
When the story was finished Mum blew out the candle.
