4 Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

CHAPTER 4 MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL... On the school bus, everyone is excited. I think that they all have ideas, but no one's telling. They're waiting for class. "Alright," says Mrs. Green. "Who has an idea for our class booth?" Every hand shoots up. Penny raises two. "Do you have an idea, Penny?" "A kissing booth!" puckers Penny. "YUCK! That won't make too much money," says Eric. "And besides, it's unsanitary!"

Mrs. Green calls on Freddy. "A bakery booth. I'll bake a lot of apple turnovers, and we'll sell them. We'll have a fast turnover," jokes Freddy. "Possible," says Mrs. Green. "Let's have a cakewalk," says Derrick. "Great," says Freddy. "Then I'll bake a cake." I LOVE APPLES.

Eric waves his hand. "I'll get a crystal ball and tell the future." "You can't tell the future," sneers Doris. "I knew you would say that," smiles Eric. YOU WILL BECOME A BEAUTIFUL BUTTERFLY. OH, THANK YOU.

"What about a basketball shoot?" says Randy. "No way," says Eric. "Those fifth graders are too good, and they'll win all of our prizes." "We could shoot meatballs instead," says Freddy. AREN'T YOU GUYS TIRED YET? YOU'RE TAKING ALL OF OUR PRIZES. TAKE A NAP, YOU LITTLE BABIES. YOU CALL THIS JUNK PRIZES?

"Too messy," I say. "What about a dunking tank?" There's silence in the room. Mrs. Green turns and writes all the ideas on the board. KISSING BOOTH BAKERY BOOTH CAKEWALK FORTUNE TELLER BASKETBALL SHOOT DUNKING TANK

"Let's vote," she says. The dunking tank idea wins hands down-or hands up. "But who will we dunk?" asks Mrs. Green. Everyone looks at her. "No way!" says Mrs. Green. ANY VOLUNTEERS?
