KEY

Peder and his sister, Morwena, went to the library. They wanted to get some books about the old mines (literally, mining area) in their locality. Peder and Morwena love exploring the engine-houses.

“Watch out (literally, take care)! Those books are falling, Peder.”

Peder caught them. In his hand were two good books. “Look, Morwena. Granddad would like this one (literally, this book).”

They went home with the two books.
