Lily, a girl. Mitts on her hand. Toy cars, zoom! A fun play band.

Car door shut. Oh, no! It's stuck. Lily pulled. No much luck.

She gave a tug. A tiny tug there. Still no pop. Oh, what a bear!

She wiggled it next. A wiggly try. No car door budged. She let out a sigh.

Then a new move. A big, big pull! Door did move. That is cool!

Mitts did help! Yes, they did. Car door open! Car door slid!
