Reading

Manny told mom everything, he even told her about our horror movies. Don’t even ask me how he knew about that. Mom made me call Rowley to apologize, but then she made me talk to his parents and apologize to them too. So I don’t think I’m going to get invited back over to Rowley’s house any time soon. Then mom got on the phone with Mrs Jefferson. Mrs Jefferson said Rowley’s big toe was broken, and that he had to stay off it for week. Then Mrs Jefferson said Rowley is heart broken, because this means he’ll have to miss the talent show tryouts. And he’s been practicing his magic act with Scotty Douglas all week.
