Max is wearing a harness. A harness helps to control animals or people like little children.You need to fasten the harness on your car seat. What other animals might wear a harness?

unusual Max found an unusual stick.

If something is unusual, it isn’t what you would expect. Youwouldn’t see it every day. It’s strange or odd. What makes this stick unusual?It would be unusual to wear a swimming costume to school.

Can you think of anything unusual? There are lots of unusual things now.
