Asked by jennifer
Are these correct sentences:
Leaping upstream, we fished most of the day for salmon.
At the age of ten, my family took a trip to Washington, D.C.
Skimming every chapter, the biology textbook made more sense.
I need help with Dangling modifiers.

Those three sentences are wrong.
Did we leap upstream?
Was the family aged ten?
Did the textbook skim every chapter?
How can you reword these sentences so that the phrases modify the word closest to them.

Yes, but delete the comma after salmon and place it after fishing.
