Once upon a time, there were seven sailors on a sailboat. They sailed across the big, salty sea. As the sun went down, they enjoyed a yummy sandwich and some tea. Sam and Sue looked up and saw seven seagulls flying high in the sky. The seagulls danced and twirled in the air. It was so much fun to watch them fly!
