Read & Explore 11: My Puppy

Read the article and answer the questions.

My puppy is untrained right now,

He unfolds all my shirts,

He unwraps all my presents,

And eats up my deserts.

He unpacks my big suitcase,

He unmakes the bed I made.

But trained or not, I love that pup,

I would never make a trade.
