9. The Amazing Ride
The Pteranodon coasted down to the ground.
He stared at Jack with his bright, alert eyes. *(alert = 정신이 초롱초롱한)
What was Jack supposed to do? Climb on? "But I'm too heavy," thought Jack.
Don't think. Just do it.
Jack looked at the Tyrannosaurus.
He was starting up the hill. His giant teeth were flashing in the sunlight.
Okay. Don't think. Just do it.
Jack put his book in his pack. Then he eased down onto the Pteranodon's back.
He held on tightly.
The creature moved forward. He spread out his wingsㅡand lifed off the ground!
They teetered this way. Then that. *(teeter = 불안정하게 서다)
Jack nearly fell off.
The Pteranodon steadied himself, then rose into the sky. *(steady, steadied = 꾸준히, 안정된, 흔들림없이)
Jack looked down. The Tyrannosaurus was chomping the air and staring up at him. *(chomping = 쩝쩝거리다)
The Pteranodon glided away.
He sailed over the hilltop.
He circled over the valley. Over all the nests filled with babies.
Over all the giant duck-billed dinosaurs.
Then the Pteranodon soared out over the plainㅡ over the Tricaratops who was grazing in the high grass
It was amazing! It was a miracle!
Jack felt like a bird. As light as a feather.
The wind was rushing through his hair. The air smelled sweet and fresh.
He whooped. He laughted.
Jack couldn't believe it. He was riding on the back of an ancient flying reptile!
The Pteranodon sailed over the stream, over the ferns and bushes.
Then he carried Jack down to the base of the oak tree.
When they came to a stop, Jack slid off the creature's back. And landed on the ground
Then the Pteranodon took off again and glided into the sky.
"Bye, Henry," whispered Jack.
"Are you okay?" Annie shouted from the tree house.
Jack pushed his glasses into place. He kept staring up at the Pteranodon.
"Jack, are you okay?" Annie called.
Jack looked up at Annie. He smiled.
"Thanks for saving my life," he said. "That was really fun."
"Climb up!" said Annie.
Jack tried to stand. His legs were wobbly.
He felt a bit dizzy.
"Hurry!" shouted Annie. "He's coming!"
Jack looked aroung. The Tyrannosaurus was heading straight toward him!
Jack bolted to the ladder. He grabbed the sides and started up.
"Hurry! Hurry!" screamed Annie.
Jack scrambled into the tree house.
"He's coming toward the tree!" Annie cried.
Suddenly something slammed against the oak tree. The tree house shook like a leaf.
Jack and Annie tumbled into the books.
"Make a wish!" cried Annie.
"We need the book! The one with the picture of Frog Creek!" said Jack. "Where is it?"
He pushed some books aside, He had to find that book about pennsylvania.
There it was!
He grabbed it and tore throught it, looking for the photograph of the Frog Creek woods.
He found it! Jack pointed to the picture.
"I wish we could go home!" he shouted.
The wind began to moan. Softly at first.
"Hurry!" Jack yelled.
The wind picked up. It was whistling now.
The tree house started to spin.
It spun faster and faster.
Jack closed his eyes. He held on tightly to Annie.
Then everything was still.
Absolutely still.
The Pteranodon was came down on the ground. In a moment, The Tyrannosaurus ran up toward the hill
Jack eased sat onto The Pteranodon of back. The Pteranodon spread out his wings and soared at the sky.
The Tyrannosaurus was chomping the air and looked up at him.

Jack was amazing.
The Pteranodon landed on the ground. And Jack took off his back.
Then the Pteranodon gliding again into the sky.
Jack was gave thanks to him.
