Money

“I want a job,” I say to Mom.

She says, “Go to school.”

I say,  “We need money.”

She says, “I make the money. Go to school!”

In school, I think about money. Mom wants a dog. I want a CD player. I need a job!

IN the school hall, I find money. $200! I think about the dog Mom wants. I think about a CD player. I have the money. I can get a CD player. I can get a dog.

I find Kay. She says, “Get the CD player.”

I find Jake. Jake says, “Get your mom a dog.”

I find Tom. Tom says, “Find who lost the money.”

The money makes me think.
