"I don't want to move!" Kevin said to his father," I like living here in New York City. And I like to play in the streets. My friends are here. I want to stay!" "We have to move, Kevin." Mr. Black said, "I have a new job on the island*. Why don't you go with us?" "No," Kevin answered. After a few weeks, the Black family left the city by plane. They flew over water. In the end they saw the land*. "That is Hawaii. It is beautiful!" Mr. Black said. "I don't care* what it is like," said Kevin, "I wish I could go back to New York City now!" They lived in their new home near the sea. It rained a little every day. When the sun came out again, they could see a rainbow* every day. People in the neighborhood came to visit them. The visitors brought fruit from their farms. Weeks went by*.One day Kevin wrote to Bob and in the letter he said, "I still miss my old friends. But I think these are our happy islands. Please come to see me. I know you will like Hawaii, too."
