Thomas' Great Birthday Surprise

It was a bright and sunny day on the Island of Sodor, and Salty and Butch were talking excitedly about something special...it was Thomas' birthday! "What should we do?" asked Salty.

"I'll go see what I can find for Thomas." said Salty. "Yeah, me too." said Butch. And they both puffed off.

Then Thomas saw Salty and puffed over. What were you and Butch talking about? asked Thomas. "Oh, nothing. I really have to go now! BYE!" Thomas was sad. Were they ignoring him? Meanwhile, Butch was looking at a present for Thomas. "How about a teeter totter?" he asked himself.

Butch got the teeter totter for Thomas and called over Salty. "I think Thomas will love it! Don't you?" asked Butch. "Yeah. Thomas will like to play on it after long and hard days." said Salty. "Let's call him!" shouted Butch.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" said Thomas and Butch. "Oh that's what you were hiding!" said Thomas. "I love it! Thank you Salty. Thank you Butch!" "You're welcome!" said Salty and Butch. "Now why don't you try it?"

Thomas loved playing on his teeter totter. He played on it all day, after his jobs. He was so happy that his friends didn't forget his birthday and that they were so nice to him!

THE END.
