Lily's Appointment

Lily's Appointment

I wrote this short story about my puppy Lily and her appointment at the vet and turned it into a visual storytelling piece. I really enjoyed the experience and learned a ton of great technology in the process! I hope to do a project similar to this with my own class in the future! I could not upload the video so please enjoy the script!!!

The day arrived when Lily had to go.

She doesn’t like the veterinarian’s office. They always give her shots that hurt. But she feels so sick that she must go to her appointment.

On their way, Lily’s Mom and Grandma try to make her feel better with treats and bones, but there is no use.

Lily is scared.

Lily arrives at the veterinarian’s office and a nice lady named Bridget takes her to a little room.

To Lily’s surprise, the nice lady was her veterinarian! “Maybe this won’t be so bad,” Lily thought.

Dr. Bridget listens to Lily’s heart, checks her teeth, and weighs her on the scale.

“5 pounds exactly!” cheered Bridget, “Besides feeling sick you are a very healthy Chihuahua!”

“But we are going to have to give you a shot so that you will feel better soon.”

After the dreaded shot, Lily was ready to go home. She had been brave but needed some rest in her own bed.

Dr. Bridget walks Lily and her mom back to the front to say goodbye.

“See you next time Lily, you were such a brave girl today!” she said.

Lily was proud. No more would she be afraid of the veterinarian’s office. Lily had a friend there.

After Lily and her Mom arrived at home, Lily laid around with her family for several days before she began to feel better.

Even when they went places, Lily felt tired.

But soon Lily began to feel better, feel hungry and want to play with her friends again.

Now that her appointment was over, Lily knew she had been very brave and that she wouldn’t feel sick any longer!
