03 Infamous

Infamous Rocky was already waiting for them at the manhole. "Hey, Rock," said Stink, "did you ever get your picture in the paper?" "Sure," said Rocky. "Bunches of times." "You did?" asked Judy. "No, not really," said Rocky. "But they did hang my picture up in the library one time."

"See?" Judy said to Stink. "Even my best friend is famous." "Why'd they hang your picture up in the library?" asked Stink. "My mom took me to the library to see this

magician guy, you know? He did this trick where he took my Superman ring and made it disappear. Then he pulled it out of his sleeve along with a bunch of scarves. They took a picture of it and I'm the kid in the front row with my eyes bugging out. Not exactly famous." "Still," said Judy. When Judy got to school, Mr. Todd said, "Let's go over our spelling words." Spelling, spelling, spelling. The whole wide world was hung up on spelling. Judy leaned over and whispered to Frank. "Hey, Frank, ever had your picture in the paper?" "It's no big deal," said Frank. "I was three years old." Adam stood up and spelled the word, "R-E-C

Y-C-L-E." "What was it for?" whispered Judy. Hailey stood up and spelled the word, "I-C-IC- L-E." "I won the Grandpa Grape Coloring Contest in the newspaper. You had to color this dancing grape cartoon guy. He used to be on grape juice. I couldn't even stay in the lines." Randi stood up and spelled, "M-O-T-O-R- C-YC- L-E." Even Frank Pearl was famous. For scribbling on a dancing grape. "Everybody I know is F-A-M-O-U-S," Judy grumped. "Judy," said Mr. Todd, "were you hoping to get a white card today?" A white card! Three white cards in one week

meant you had to stay after school! She already had two. And it was only Wednesday. "Why don't you spell the bonus word aloud for us?" Mr. Todd said. Bonus word? thought Judy. She hadn't been paying attention. She, Judy Moody, was in a pickle. Pickle? Was that the word? "Could I have the definition please?" she asked. The whole class cracked up. "It's something you eat," said Rocky. Judy stood up. "P-O-P-S-I-C-L-E. Popsicle," she announced confidently. "Very good," said Mr. Todd. "For popsicle. Unfortunately that wasn't our bonus spelling word for today."
