Anna is an old woman. She lives in a small house. The house is bright and clean. Sun comes through the window. Anna sits in a green chair. A small cat sits with her. The cat is soft and grey. The cat is her good friend. Anna smiles at the cat. The sun is warm today. Anna likes warm mornings. Anna looks at her shirt. It is a very old shirt. The shirt is red. The shirt is soft cotton. She wears this shirt every day. It is her favorite shirt. But today something is wrong. A small button is missing. The button is not there. Anna wants to find the button. She looks on the table. She looks under her chair. The grey cat looks too. The cat says meow. Anna can not find the button. She stands up slowly. She walks to a wood table. A small blue box sits there. The box is very old too. Anna opens the blue box. Inside are many small things. There are many colorful buttons. Some buttons are big. Some buttons are small. One button is green. One button is yellow. Anna looks for a red button. She searches inside the box. She finds a red button! The red button is round. It matches her red shirt. Anna is very happy now. Next she needs thread. She looks in the box again. She finds a spool of thread.
