One Monday afternoon after school, Tom and Jerry were in the school library. They both wanted to borrow the only copy of their favorite book. Since the library couldn’t lend it to both of them at once, they started arguing about who should borrow it first.
Tom soon calmed down. He suggested they read the book together in the library that day. Jerry thought it was a good idea. Then they found a quiet corner and read the book together.
