Use of Between in Sentence
Hello again dear teacher, my Alma had to write a story using "between," . Here's what she wrote:

"Once upon a time, there was a small town between two mountains. The people in the town were friendly and always helped each other. There was a river that ran between the two mountains, and the children loved to play near it. One day, the mayor asked the people to decide between two locations for the new school. After much thought, they agreed on the place between the park and the library."

Can you help her make sure it's correct

Hello! The story is quite good!  ! It uses "between" correctly and consistently throughout. Here's a slightly revised version with a bit of refinement to improve flow and clarity: 

 "Once upon a time, there was a small town nestled between two mountains. The people in the town were friendly and always helped each other. A river ran between the mountains, and the children loved to play near it. One day, the mayor asked the townspeople to decide between two possible locations for the new school. After much thought, they agreed on the site located between the park and the library." 

 The main changes were to add "nestled" to describe the town more vividly. Hope this helps!
