Let’s read the story carefully:
> Josh has a wish. He wants to swim with the fish.
→ So, his wish is clearly stated:
swim with fish.
> “Let’s shop,” says Mom. She grabs a mask off the shelf.
→ They go shopping first — but that’s not his *wish*, it’s what Mom suggests to help him get ready.
> Mom and Josh rush to the ship.
→ They go to the ship after shopping.
> They hop on. The ship stops.
→ So they hopped on the
ship.
> Splash! Josh hops off. Josh sees a lot of fish! He pets the fins. Josh got his wish! He swam with the fish.
→ Confirms he did swim with fish — so his wish came true.
