Let's read a short story about firecracker!
The Christmas Firecracker Surprise
On Christmas Eve, little Tim found a colorful firecracker in the drawer while searching for tape to wrap presents. "This will make Christmas exciting!" he thought. As the family gathered for hot cocoa, Tim lit the firecracker outside, but instead of a loud bang, it fizzled and popped like a tiny sneeze.
Tim turned around, disappointed and that's when he heard a loud bang! Tim jumped in the air, scared...and saw his brother with a firecracker, laughing at him.
