Transition words & phrases

It was Bella's first camping trip, and though she was excited, she was nervous, too.

What if the tent falls over and squashes us?

Well, what if a wolf comes into the tent and eats us?

Bella had read too many fairy stories with big bad wolves in them.

There aren't any wolves in Yorkshire, he said.

There aren't any wolves in the whole of Britain.

Joe said that zoos were far too careful to let their animals escape on.

Bella soon forgot about Walls as they started planning for the camping trip.

On Saturday morning, Assumes were packed up.

It was a big one for the whole family, then the sleeping bags and blankets.

It's cold at night when you're sleeping in a tent.

Then they packed the cooking equipment on lots of food to cook.

When everything was packed, the car was full to bursting.

The Hobson family just managed to squeeze in.

Soon they were leaving the city behind them.

They drove up a winding road with no houses until they reached the turning for the campsite.

It belonged to a farm and was in a big field.

There were views out over the Moors on lots of space for people to pitch their tent.

Once the tent was up, it was time to eat.

There were trees to climb on a stream for paddling.

Bella started collecting tadpoles in a jar with another girl, and Joe played on a rope swing with some of the older kids.

The day flew by tomorrow, said Dad will go for a long hike over the moors.

The family ate sausages and beans, then roasted marshmallows on sticks over a campfire.

In the darkness, strange rustling noises came from the hedge next to their 10th.

After Bella, she looked nervous and move closer to Mom.

Don't worry, it's not a wolf, said Joe teasingly.

Or maybe it's just the wind rustling the leaves.

Joe, you couldn't really blame her for having silly worries about wolves.

After a day outdoors, they put out the fire, close the tent flap and crawled into their sleeping bags.

Joe was too excited to sleep, so he lay awake thinking about the day and wondering what would happen tomorrow.

Suddenly, he heard something from outside the tent.

A rustling noise, probably just a rabbit, he thought.

It sounded like something walking around outside something bigger than a rabbit.

This camp site was just the kind of place that might like Joe lay there, shivering as the rustling continued at last, he could bear it no longer.

He got up and stuck his head out of the tent.

A cow gazed at him over the hedge she had soft brown eyes on was chewing peacefully on some leaves.

He crawled back into his sleeping bag to think I was afraid of a cow.
