| Los Angeles is a big city. |
| There are millions of people here. |
| But thousands of people have no home. |
| They are homeless people. |
| They live on the sidewalks. |
| They sleep on the sidewalks. |
| They are called street people. |
| They don’t have cars. |
| They have shopping carts. |
| They fill the carts with their belongings. |
| They put their extra clothes into the carts. |
| They put their blankets into the carts. |
| Many homeless people live downtown. |
| They live near the newspaper building. |
| They live near the courthouse. |
| They live near fancy condos. |
| They have no money. |
| They sit on the sidewalk all day. |
| People walk by them. |
| They ask people for money. |
| People say they don’t have any money. |
| There are missions downtown. |
| These missions feed homeless people. |
| They give them free lunches. |
| They feed them every day. |
| Some missions have beds. |
| Homeless people sleep in these beds. |
| But there are more homeless people than beds. |
| There are not enough beds for the homeless people. |
| So most homeless people sleep on the sidewalk. |
| They sleep next to their shopping carts. |
