Edward and Edwina Characters

Read the short story about Edward and Edwina. Then answer the questions. Look for clues that show what each character is like.

Edward and Edwina’s Canteen Dash

At the school canteen, Edward and Edwina the emus spotted a paper bag rolling across the ground. It was Chloe’s lunch bag, and a strong breeze was pushing it towards the oval gate. “I’ll catch it!” called Edward. He raced after the bag, but it rolled under a bench. Edward stopped and peered beneath it. “I can’t reach it,” he said. Edwina looked around. She noticed a long, fallen palm frond beside the bench. “We can use this to pull the bag closer,” she said. Edward held one end while Edwina gently hooked the bag with the other. Soon, the bag was back in Chloe’s hands. “Thank you for helping,” said Chloe. Edward grinned. “We make a good team!” Edwina nodded. She was pleased they had solved the problem together.
