And not just a realdog—a dog carrying a bone much bigger than his own.2 If he had stopped to think, the dog would have known better. Butinstead of thinking, he dropped his bone and sprang at the dog he saw inthe river. To his great surprise, he found himself swimming for dear lifeto reach the shore. At last he managed to scramble out. As he stood sadlythinking about the good bone he had lost, he realized what a stupid dog hehad been.The Swollen Foxby Aesop1 A hungry fox found in a hollow tree a quantity of bread and meat, whichsome shepherds had hidden there for later use.

She was hunting for facts about her ancestors for a school project,and her mother had suggested looking in the chest, which had belonged toGloria’s grandmother.2 Inside the chest, Gloria found old photographs, a thimble, and a tin box.After flipping through the blurry black-and-white photos, Gloria opened thebox.

Comparing and Contrasting Stories in the Same Genre Lesson 22Genre: MysteryMile-High Mysteryby Joanna Banks1 It was a bitterly cold and snowy Tuesday afternoon in my town ofFairbanks, Alaska. My sister Missy and I sat at the kitchen table doing ourhomework when we heard an eerie wail coming from outside. “Whatever itis, it’s on the porch,” Missy whispered, and she lifted the curtain to look out.2 On our porch sat the shaggiest, saddest dog we had ever seen, his faceand paws encrusted with ice. We brought the poor creature inside to showour parents, and I rubbed down his back and head with a towel. “He seemshealthy,” I said, “so he must belong to someone.”3 I was determined to get him back to his owner—but how could I find thatperson? Just then I heard a muffled jingle of metal from under all that fur.“Hey, he’s wearing a collar with a tag! Maybe we can find his owner throughthis . . . oh. It just says ‘Mile High’ on the tag. Nothing else.”4 “So maybe it’s an animal clinic?” said Mom. “But I’ve never heard of thatone before.” In response, I dug a phone book out of a kitchen drawer, but itdidn’t have a listing for a “Mile High” animal clinic.5 “Maybe it’s a new clinic and isn’t listed yet,” I said. “I’ll call the operator.”But the operator told me that Fairbanks didn’t have any business, includingan animal clinic, with that name.6 I sighed, but I just couldn’t give up. “This is a job for the Internet,” I said.A Web search revealed that Denver, Colorado, is nicknamed the “Mile HighCity.” Next I searched for animal clinics in Denver, and bingo!

For the past year, she hadbeen begging her parents to take her white-water rafting, and they finallysaid yes. Frankie had heard that white-water rafting was a lot like riding aroller coaster, and she loved roller coasters. She couldn’t stop smiling asshe climbed into the raft with her family and the guide, whose name wasEmily. As she strapped on her life jacket and listened to the guide explainhow to paddle, Frankie grew more and more eager. Finally, Emily launchedthe raft out into a calm section of water and everyone began to paddle.2 “On your left, you’ll see a family of otters building a den,” Emily said.But Frankie just looked straight ahead and paddled, wanting to get to thefirst rapids as quickly as possible. Her excitement grew as the sounds ofrushing water got closer and closer. “Everybody brace yourself,” Emily saidas they approached the rapids. “This one is a monster!” Frankie’s heartpounded with excitement and she put a little extra effort into her paddling.When they hit the rapids, the swift current tossed them around. The waterwas so strong that it made the raft bump into boulders and piles of brushagain and again. The impact seemed stronger every time. A few times,Frankie was sure the whole raft was going to turn upside down and dumpthem all into the rushing water. It was a little scary, but it really did feel likea roller coaster!408Lesson 22 Comparing and Contrasting Stories in the Same Genre Curriculum Associates, LLCCopying is not permitted.

Comparing and Contrasting Stories in the Same Genre Lesson 223 Finally, the raft slid out of the rushing water and into a calm pool.Everyone was smiling. “That was fun!” Frankie yelled. “Where are the nextrapids?”4 “Not for a while,” Emily answered. “The next couple of miles are prettycalm. We have a perfect chance to do some nature watching!”5 Frankie sighed. The rapids were all she was really interested in. But aslong as she had to wait, she thought she might as well enjoy the sights.Frankie took a break from paddling to listen to Emily, who was explaininghow the river creatures lived and worked together. “River ecology is verycomplex,” said Emily. “All of the animals—wait!” Emily lowered her voice.“Be very quiet, pick up your paddles, and look at what’s behind thattree on the right bank of the river.”6 Frankie squinted as her eyes followed the line formed byEmily’s pointing finger. When she finally saw what Emily wasshowing her, she gasped. It was a mother wolf and twotiny wolf pups. The mother was peering out from behinda tree as the pups batted at each other’s faces underthe mother’s legs. “She has probably been teachingher pups to hunt here by the river,” whispered Emily.“Maybe even showing them how to catch fish!”Frankie smiled to herself, imagining those wolf pupssplashing around in the water, pawing at fish. Justthen, her eyes met the mother wolf’s. For at least aminute, they just looked at each other. Frankie wishedthe whole raft could become invisible so they couldjust watch the wolf family all day.7 The mother wolf looked away from Frankie andnudged her pups to run away from the riverbank. In aninstant, they were gone. “We were very lucky,” Emily said.“Not many people get to see wolves in the wild. They’re verygood at hiding.”8   Frankie sighed as the sound of approaching rapids began to getcloser and closer. They all put their paddles back in the water. “Herewe go again!” said Emily. But Frankie’s paddling was much slower than ithad been before. She was still thinking about those tiny wolf pups, and thelong look she had shared with a mother wolf.

Sometimes they forage in fields.And because they are shortsighted and suspicious of anything that moves,they can be dangerous. But, like most wild animals, they avoid humans asmuch as possible.2 Village folk always advise me to run downhill if chased by a bear.They say bears find it easier to run uphill than down. I have yet to bechased by a bear, and will happily skip the experience. But I have seen afew of these mountain bears in India, and they are always fascinating towatch. Himalayan bears enjoy corn, pumpkins, plums, and apricots.3 Once, while I was sitting in an oak tree hoping to see a pair of pinemartens1 that lived nearby, I heard the whining grumble of a bear, andpresently a small bear ambled into the clearing beneath the tree.4 He was little more than a cub, and I was not alarmed. I sat very still,waiting to see what the bear would do.1 Pine marten: a small furry mammal that belongs to the weasel family410Lesson 22 Comparing and Contrasting Stories in the Same Genre
