The Dinosaur Museum Surprise

Milo loved dinosaurs more than anything. On Saturday, Milo went to the big museum with Grandpa. Milo had a little notebook and a red pencil, ready to learn.

In the first room stood a huge dinosaur skeleton. Its neck went up, up, up to the ceiling. "Wow," said Milo. "It is as tall as a tree!" Milo drew it in the notebook.

Then Milo saw a small sign on the floor. It said, "Can you find the hidden egg?" Milo smiled. This was a game!

Milo looked behind a big rock. No egg. Milo looked under a fern. No egg. Milo looked high and low, and then Milo stopped to think. "Dinosaurs laid eggs in nests," said Milo. "I should look for a nest!"

Near the back of the room, Milo found a round nest made of sticks and dried grass. Inside sat a speckled egg. It was only a model, but it looked so real. Milo gave a happy little jump.

A kind guide gave Milo a shiny sticker. It said, "Super Dino Detective." Milo put it right on the notebook.

On the ride home, Milo showed Grandpa every picture. "Today was the best day," said Milo. "Tomorrow I will draw a dinosaur nest at home!"

Grandpa gave Milo a warm hug. "I cannot wait to see it," he said.
