When the children returned after delivering all the papers without a single mistake, they found Scooter waiting on the front steps. “How many did your mutt run off with?” he wanted to know.

“He isn’t a mutt and he didn’t run off with any,” boasted Henry. “He wouldn’t touch a paper. See?” Henry tossed his own copy of the Journal onto the grass. Ribsy looked the other way.

“I guess I did a pretty good job of delivering papers,” bragged Henry. “You won’t get any complaints tonight.”

“That’s right,” agreed Beezus. “I checked every address on the list with him just to make sure.”

Scooter threw one leg over his bicycle.

“And I get to deliver papers while you’re away, don’t I?” Henry was thinking of his bike fund again, now that Ribsy was untrained.

“Sure,” said Scooter, “if you don’t think it’s too hard work for a kid without a bike.”

“You just wait,” said Henry. “I bet I get that bike sooner than you think.”

“Ha,” said Scooter, pedaling down the street.

“You’re dead!” shrieked Ramona, squirt-ing her pistol with deadly accuracy.
