Hank and his brother, Isaac, walked into home and called their mom. As they entered the living room, they saw their mom lying on the floor.

Hanks shook her and shouted, “Mommy, wake up!” She didn't answer, so Hank tried again. Isaac began to cry.

“Don't worry, Isaac. It will be OK, ” Hank said, but he had to think quickly. He was only eight years old. What could he do? Then he remembered how Grandma used to play a game with him. She would pretend to be an operator. She would ask him questions like “What is your name?”“What is your address?” He had learned all the right answers, so he knew what to do. Hank took up the phone and dialed the emergency number. A lady answered the phone and said, “What is your emergency?” Hank was shaking so he took a deep breath and said, “Hello! My name is Hank Robinson. My mom is on the floor. She looks like she is sleeping, but I can't wake her up. Then the lady asked Hank all the questions he had practiced with Grandma. He remembered to speak loudly and clearly because it was important. If the lady did not understand him, she could not help Mom. So again Hank said, “I live at 1203 Oak Street in Madison.”

Soon two doctors came to help. They helped Mom to wake up. Finally, she sat up and began to feel better. She smiled and thanked the doctors, and they told her that Hank was a hero because he helped save his mom's life.

When a snowman melts, it leaves us a gift that lasts all year. To find out what this gift is, let’s take a close look at what happens to the snowman.

It has to be warm outside for a snowman to melt. As the sun shines, it makes heat. We can't see heat, but we know it's there because we feel the warmth on our hands and faces.

The snowman gets smaller and smaller as it melts, until we can't see it at all. As the snowman melts, it turns into water. If you look carefully at snow, you'll see that it actually small pieces of ice that are stuck together. When they get warm, they change from ice into water. But where does the water from the snowman go? The ground acts like a sponge and soaks up the water. As the water seeps into the ground, it finds lots of things, such as grass roots, flower bulbs, or tree roots, which are thirsty.

So that's the snowman's year-round gift-water!

Without water, we wouldn't have colorful flowers to look at in spring. Without water, we wouldn't have soft, green grass to run barefoot on in summer. Without water, we wouldn’t have strong, tall trees to climb in fall. Water helps all of these things grow. The snowman's gift lasts all year.
