i think it's time for that book we were

talking about yes

the book book

it's called

roller coaster by marla frazee

all of these people are waiting in line

for the roller coaster most of them have

written on lots of roller coasters

some of them have only ridden on a

roller coaster once or twice

at least one of them has never ridden on

a roller coaster before

ever

the roller coaster is very big and very

noisy

you must be tall enough to ride it

but sometimes even those who are tall

enough decide they don't want to

lots of people change their mind about

riding the roller coaster at the very

last minute

finally it is time to get into the cars

the ride operator says load them up to a

seat

when everyone is buckled in the operator

rings a bell

then he releases the brake

the train jerks forward on the tracks

now it is too late for anyone to change

their mind

slowly

the train is pulled up

[Music]

most people scream

some people can't make a sound and one

person can't even open her eyes

a train sips

it zooms

it dips and dies

and goes

[Music]

[Music]

most of these people are dizzy

some of them have wobbly knees

but at least one of them is planning to

ride the roller coaster again
