Read the story from the book "The Midnight Fox" by Betsy Byars and match the characters with the information about them. You can use the letters more than once.
I did not want to go to the farm. I was happy at home.
I had a new plane model and I wanted to play with it, and then my mum told me about aunt Millie's farm.
"I don't want to go to a farm," I said.
"But, Tom, why not?"
"Because I don't want to."
"You don't want to go now," my mum said, "but after you think about it, you will."
"I will never want to go."
"How do you know? When I first saw this farm, I loved it. It is the prettiest farm I saw. There are great big apple trees there. You can climb them and there are cows and horses and ..."
"Animals don't like me. I'm scared of farm animals. I don't want to go at all. Why can't I stay here?"
"Because we don't stay in the city," my mum said, and went out of the room.
That evening my father came in and talked to me.
"This is fantastic," my dad said. "Fantastic! There is a lake there — did you know that? You can go swimming every day."
"I can't swim well," I said to him.
"You can learn! And your mother has this chance to go travelling. She can't wait to see Europe. I want to go with her, too."
"But I don't want to go."
"You should think about your mum!"
I wanted to cry but I didn't and I said, "All right, you can tell mum I want to go to the farm."
Then I took my model and started looking at it.
