7 MIRACLE IN MONKEY PARK

MIRACLE IN MONKEY PARK Bean tore through Monkey Park and skidded to a halt in front of Jean and Jean. "Can I borrow Kalia?" she panted. "NO!" said Kalia. "Sure!" said Jean and Jean. "I'll bring her back soon," Bean promised. She took Kalia by the goopy hand. "Come on! This is going to be fun!"

"Take your time!" called Jean the boy as Bean and Kalia took off. "Keep her as long as you want!" Bean soon learned that Kalia couldn't run like a normal person. Her legs were too short, for one thing. For another, she couldn't concentrate. She kept falling over. Finally, Bean was forced to pick her up. The goopy brown smears were even more disgusting close up. Also, she smelled. "You smell," said Bean. "NO!" said Kalia. She hugged Bean.

"Ew," said Bean, but she didn't have time to argue. She had to hurry. And she made it! Ivy was still begging with her eyes closed and her arms out. The watching kids had gotten bored. They had gone back to kicking balls. "Oh ye gods, save me!" Ivy chanted. "Give me a baby sister!" She wiggled her fingers to show that she was ready to catch a baby. Bean put her hand over Kalia's smeary mouth and tiptoed into the circle just as Ivy finished up a long "Ooooooh gods!" Quickly, Bean rolled Kalia right into Ivy's open arms. Ivy's eyes flew open. "Yikes!" she squawked.

"Holy moly cannoli, your prayers have been answered, Ivy!" cried Bean. "You've got yourself a fine baby sister!" "Wow." Ivy stared at Kalia's smeary face. "Isn't this Kalia?" "BEEBEE!" hollered Kalia, twisting around to find Bean.
