The family was in the kitchen.
Mom was cooking dinner.
"How was school today?" Dad asked.
"We had a fire drill," said Emmy.
"Everybody had to walk outside," said Harry.
"Hmm," said Dad.
"We should have a family fire drill."
"Yes!" said Mom.
"Let's have a fire drill before dinner."
"What should we do?" Emmy asked.
Dad pointed to the smoke alarm.
"I'll make the smoke alarm go off," he said.
"Then we'll walk outside to a safe place."
"Let's go to the tree house!" Oliver said.
"Good idea!" Dad said.
"Get ready, everybody!"
"I'll tell Aunt Judy to get ready," Emmy said.
Emmy ran to Aunt Judy's room.
Oliver and Harry ran to Harry's room.
Everybody waited.
Whoop! Whoop! went the smoke alarm.
Everybody walked quickly to the tree house.
Dad counted the family.
"Six people!"
"Our family is safe," Mom said.
"Good job, everyone!"
The family walked back to the house.
Dad opened the back door.
Harry sniffed.
Emmy sniffed.
"Something smells bad," said Harry.
"Yes!" said Emmy.
"I smell smoke!"
"Oh no!" Mom cried.
She ran to the stove.
"I burned our dinner!"
