The Girl at the Front of the Class

There’s a new girl in my class. She has eyes as wide and as golden as a tiger’s, skin as pale as a glass of milk, and hair as shiny as a mirror. I’d like to be her friend. But she never plays with me in the playground or makes sandcastles in the sandpit. She’s doesn’t even like Story Time.

The cleverest people I know say that the new girl is sad because she had to leave her home, her family, her school, her toys, her books and all her friends too.
