Leo the brave photographer
My name is Leo and I love taking pictures. One day, I want to be a famous photographer. Yesterday morning, I went to the supermarket in our town because I needed to buy some snacks. I saw a woman with a green handbag. She was looking at some fruit.
Suddenly, a man in a grey coat walked quietly behind her. He put his hand into her handbag and pulled out her wallet! I knew he was doing something bad. I had my camera around my neck, so I quickly took a photo of him and shouted, "Stop right there!" The bad man was very scared. He dropped the wallet and ran out of the supermarket as fast as he could.
The woman picked up her wallet and thanked me very much. A few minutes later, a police officer arrived. He looked at the picture on my camera screen and smiled. But then he said, "I need to take your camera to the police station to find this bad man." I gave it to him, but I felt a bit sad. Because of that, I couldn't take pictures for an important art show that afternoon!
