Granny has to call Paula’s momma to come pick her up. “I don’t envy her momma,” Granny says. “Getting that gum off is going to be a challenge.”

“I guess I win the contest,” Cara brags.

Paula starts to cry.

“Wait just a minute,” I say. “Paula did blow the biggest bubble.”

“Kylie Jean has a point,” Lucy agrees.

We declare Paula the bubble-blowing winner right as her momma pulls up. I give her a big squeezy hug, but I’m careful not to get any of that sticky gum on me.

I look back at the garden and realize we are almost done. “The border of pink flowers looks almost like a crown!” I tell Granny.

“You think everything looks like a crown,” Cara says. Since my dream is to be a beauty queen, she’s right!

“We better hurry and clean up,” Granny says. “It’s getting close to suppertime.”

We clean up our supplies, and as Ugly Brother and I get ready to head home, I just have to take one more look at my beautiful pink patch of pretty flowers. It is a garden fit for a queen!

Thursday’s garden is a water garden in the middle of the town park. It has lots of lotus flowers, cattails, and lily pads. There are even fish swimming in it!

On Friday, it’s time for Granny’s garden — the final one. Granny decides to plant her garden in front of the town hall.

She decides to work all by herself, and at the end of the day, everyone is amazed at her magnificent garden! Granny sure did save the best for last!

In the center, plants and flowers form a giant dogwood tree. All around the edges of the garden, flowers in every color of the rainbow form a border. Butterflies flit happily over the blossoms, and bees buzz in appreciation.

At the end of the week, our little town has gardens galore! We’re sure to win the Prettiest Town contest now!
