Noticing it, Lan ran home quickly with her dog, and told her mother what Skippy had done.  Lan's mother - Mrs. Quyen - told Lan that she heard the news on TV that there would be a typhoon coming.  Mrs. Quyen gathered the family and told them to find shelter in the home.  Suddenly, the sky became very dark. A few minutes late the storm came with strong winds and heavy rain. Mrs. Quyen's family got very scared. But soon the storm finished. Everyone was glad.  What a clever dog, Skippy!
