Nikki was happy to visit the special park her mother had been telling her about. When they arrived, she could hardly believe her
eyes. As she stood on the sidewalk in front of the entrance, she could barely see over the hedge that made a fence around the park. She could see the top of a red and white tent and the head of a dinosaur. She heard carousel music, the sounds of ducks, and children playing.

The ropes that were supposed to keep the balloon in one place had come untied and were dangling below the balloon. She could now see into the park.
