Read the selection below.

Winter Tomatoes
I love the tomatoes we grow in the summer. I told Mom
I wanted to grow them in the winter. She helped me start a
winter tomato garden.
We planted seeds in small pots. Soon little green shoots
poked up. When the seedlings were three weeks old, Mom and
I put them in bigger pots. I set the pots in a sunny corner of the
barn. Then I made sure the plants got enough water and sunlight.
Soon there were little green tomatoes. They turned
orange, and then red.
I ran to the road and posted a sign: “Tomatoes for Sale.”
People lined up to buy them! When Mom saw how much
money we made, she smiled.
