Just so stories, The Crab That Played With the Sea, sentence 146

You can see when you go to the beach, how all Pau Amma’s babies make little Pusat Taseks for themselves under every stone and bunch of weed on the sands; you can see them waving their little scissors; and in some parts of the world they truly live on the dry land and run up the palm trees and eat cocoa-nuts, exactly as the girl-daughter promised.

Who acts: You, babies, girl daughter · What happens: see, go, make, wave, live, run up · To what, where: beach, little Pusat Taseks, stone, babies, little scissors, parts · Speech: someone speaks here
