Book Cover & Preview Text
“Hey Lucy,” shouted a familiar voice. It was Gregory. “I’ll race you to the creek.” Lucy looked down at the ground and mumbled, “I can’t. I have to stay here for a tea party.” “Oh, come on,” Gregory begged. “Can’t you play for just a little while?” Lucy glanced back at her grandmother’s house. She looked at the creek. She felt the sun beating down, and it sure was hot. “Well, I guess I can go for a little while.” She threw the table cloth on the table and took off running with Gregory.
