Book Cover & Preview Text
Lily was drawing with sidewalk chalk. She saw her neighbor Emma riding down the block. Lily wanted to ride a bike, too. She pictured herself pedaling down the sidewalk, like Emma could do. Emma told Lily that she could try, but Lily was only three, and the seat was too high. Lily wished she were older so she could ride around, instead of just drawing with chalk on the ground.
