FOR CHILDREN

Everybody's a lovey!

Bettie Gray House

One bright day on the drive home from Tom's and B.J.'s school, Mama asked if anybody wanted to go to the park. Katy and Laney clapped their hands, and Tom and B.J. shouted, "Yeah, yeah." B.J. was so excited, he held his folder with his kindergarten papers out of the car window. He was pretending it was an airplane All of a sudden it was an airplane. It flew right out of B.J.'s hand and landed on the sidewalk.

Mama drove to the side of the street and let B.J. hop out to get his folder. He was glad the papers were still in it. Katy and Laney and Tom watched B.J. run and pick up his folder. Then he jumped back in the car and shut the door.

All of a sudden Katy began to cry hard. The door was shut on her fingers. Mama quickly opened the door, and B.J. told Katy he was very sorry. Mama took Katy up front beside her and tried to comfort her.
