He dropped his fishing line into the tank. “The guppies just aren’t biting today,” he muttered. “But I’m not complaining. PPP is such a wealthy school, I have three assistants who do all my work. Leaves me plenty of time for fishing.”

“I’m sorry to interrupt,” Alli said, shuffling through the pages on her clipboard. “But these guys are one minute and forty-five seconds behind schedule. We have to hurry up and—”

Before she could finish, a chubby, red-haired boy came running into the office. He shoved a fat envelope at the Headmaster. “Here’s the money I collected, Mr. Snute,” he said.

Snute took the envelope and set it down on his desk. “Good work, Feldspar.”

“Hi. I’m Feldspar Pyrite,” the boy said. “Are you in fourth grade? I skipped fourth grade. Everyone in my family always skips fourth grade. We’re wacky that way.”

He turned back to the headmaster. “This is the money I collected for the Bow Tie Fund. To buy bow ties for the poor. Don’t thank me, sir. You know how deeply I care about getting bow ties for the poor. I start to cry every time I think about it.” He brushed away a tear.

Alli checked her stopwatch. “We’re late for afternoon tea,” she said. “Let’s go, guys.”

Headmaster Snute waved good-bye. “Don’t just flop around. Throw a wide net, boys,” he said, “and see what you catch.”

We started for the door.

“Aren’t you forgetting something?” the headmaster called.

“Oh, yes. Sorry,” I said. I pulled the money envelope out from under my shirt and handed it back to him.
