He’d get the small cruncher going. Then he and Jake could build a gigantic one.

Out in the hall, Ramón blew his whistle. Time to go.

Charlie and Sumiko walked to the bus.

The bus driver was waiting for them. She had a bandage on her foot.

“What happened?” Charlie asked.

Mrs. Dover didn’t look happy.

“Snap! I stepped on a mousetrap.” She looked at Charlie. “It was in my son’s bedroom.”

Terrible news! Her poor foot.

And almost as bad—

His Junker Cruncher was ruined.

This afternoon it was about to rain. Charlie could hear thunder.

“Swish crackle boom,” he said to himself in a Ms. Katz voice.

He went downstairs to the Center.

“How about knitting with us?” Destiny asked.

Beebe was standing next to her. “I’ll teach you.” Beebe sounded just a little loud. Ms. Katz said that was because she couldn’t hear her own voice very well.

“You could make a tie,” Beebe said.

Beebe was a nice girl. But a tie? He wouldn’t wear a tie in a million years. “Sorry,” he said.

He looked out the door.

The pile of junk was still there. Jake was trying to cover it.

He flapped a big gray tarp.

Charlie wanted to help. But Mrs. Farelli would be waiting. Charlie walked to the art room. Slowly.

The door was locked.

Ms. Katz came along. “Mrs. Farelli has a cold,” she said. “She’ll be out for the rest of the week.”

“Too bad,” Charlie said.

Wait. Did that mean—No Peter Rabbit!
