Grace was in the reading corner, too. She was sitting on the red and blue pillow with Ava. It was the pillow Posey and Ava always shared.

“We’re playing school,” Nikki told Posey. “I’m the teacher.”

“We’re having reading time,” Grace said. “I’m in the red group, too.”

“Did Miss Lee say that?” said Posey.

“I’m a good reader,” said Grace. “Look how fast I am!”

She held her book in front of her face. She shook her head back and forth like she was reading fast. “A-B-C, A-B-C, A-B-C,” she said.

Ava and Nikki laughed.

“You can read with us,” Grace said to Posey.

Posey frowned. Grace acted like she knew everything.

“I don’t want to,” Posey said. She went to her table and sat down.

Posey worked hard all morning. When Grace tried to whisper to her, Posey said, “I’m trying to do my work.”

As soon as it was recess, Posey ran to Nikki and Ava. She grabbed their hands.

“Come on!” Posey said. “Let’s play the hopping game!”

The three friends ran outside. They crouched down and put their arms around their knees.

Then they jumped up high. Like springs.

Up and down. Up and down. They tried to see who could jump the highest.

“Look, I’m a frog!” Posey shouted.

“I’m a frog, too,” called a voice.

Grace crouched down next to Posey. “Let’s you and me hold hands and hop,” she said.

“Frogs don’t have hands,” said Posey.

Grace hopped to the left. Then she hopped to the right. This time, she made a funny croaking noise. She sounded just like a frog.

Posey stood up. “That’s not how you do it,” she said.

Ava and Nikki started to make croaking noises, too. They hopped with Grace across the grass.

Posey watched them go.

They were having so much fun.

They didn’t look like they missed Posey at all. Posey’s mouth got trembly.

What if Ava and Nikki liked Grace more than her?
