Eliana showed them her prize, which was a little purple octopus.

“That’s cool, Eliana!” said Apollo.

“Want to trade?” Astrid asked her.

Eliana shook her head and smiled.

“At least she’s smiling now,” said Astrid.

Apollo nodded. “Are you happy now?” he asked Eliana.

Eliana shrugged and whispered, “Soo-per, soo-per.”

The twins looked at each other and shrugged too.

As they walked by the ring toss game, the worker called into a megaphone.

“Step right up! Win a giant boat, a giant truck, or a giant snake! Toss one ring around a bottle, and pick your prize!”

Huge yellow, green, and blue plastic blow-up boats, trucks, and snakes hung above the glass bottles. The worker waved at Dad.

“Step right up. Give it a try!” he said.

Dad turned to look at the prizes and grinned.

“You’ve always wanted a boat,” Mom teased him.

“Try it, Dad!” said Apollo.

“Do it, Dad! Win us a boat!” Astrid said.

The twins jumped up and down. They were excited for Dad to play.

Eliana was excited too. “Boat, boat, boat!” she said.
