Step 7, set 5

The dark cellar

The text

Tip for the adult

Read it twice if you can: the first time to get the words right and the second time to read it as a whole.

Der er mørkt i kælderen.

Emil skal hente en kasse.

Han trykker på kontakten, men pæren er sprunget.

Der falder lidt lys ind fra døren.

Han hører noget bag sig.

Han vender sig om.

Det er bare katten.

Emil griner og går op.
