The text appears to be a transcript of a children's story reading session. The story is "Sammy the Classroom Guinea Pig" by Alex Berenzi. The story revolves around a guinea pig named Sammy who lives in a small house with a soft blue sock as his favorite place to nap. Sammy has a big case to scamper about in, and his favorite food is a fresh guinea pig salad. He also enjoys chewing on water to drink and a round block of salt to lick.
Sammy has a unique way of standing up on his hind legs, which is a difficult trick for a guinea pig. He is always eager to greet Miss B, his teacher, every morning. Sammy has individual taste preferences and loves many kinds of fruits and vegetables. His favorite treat is cantaloupe.
One day, Sammy starts to feel something bothering him during the lesson. He can't contain it anymore and starts to cry. He then runs around, kicking and shaving wood everywhere. Miss B stops writing on the blackboard and gathers around Sammy's cage. She picks him up and lifts him with two hands, careful to support his heavy hindquarters. Miss B asks Sammy what's the matter, but Sammy doesn't respond.
Miss B and her students gather around Sammy's cage. They try to understand why Sammy is acting this way. Miss B suggests that Sammy might be afraid or something is hurting him. She tells them that guinea pigs usually sit quietly with their fur puffed up when they don't feel well. Sammy's skin looks perfectly healthy, and there's no wetness around his eyes or nose, which would indicate if he were sick.
Miss B decides to take a look at Sammy. She lifts up each of his little ears and looks into them. Sammy feels her fingers parting his fur to reveal his skin. Miss B asks the class if they see any red marks or wild spots, which would indicate a skin problem. Sammy's skin looks perfectly healthy. Miss B confesses that Sammy decided he didn't like them looking through his fur anymore.
Sammy starts to make unhappy noises, small irritated squeals, and squeaks. Miss B lets Sammy go, and he immediately stops complaining. He begins to waddle around the tabletop, sniffing the surface. Sammy makes his way to Maria and touches her nose with his paws. That's how guinea pigs recognize and greet each other.
Maria explains that Sami blurbed in soft musical tones, which means he is happy. Sammy is glad when Maria picks him up and cuddles him. Maria thinks that Sammy is glad to see everyone because he wants their attention. Miss B studies Sammy and asks him if this is true. Sammy feels someone scratch his chin, and he crunches up his nose in pleasure. He chuckles happily as all his friends gather around him.
