Don't Tell Anyone (2001)
“Although she knew the balloon festival would be fun, she wished she didn’t have to go home early. She wanted to watch the kittens.
When she was a block away, she saw a large flatbed truck parked at the front edge of the field, near the sign. For a second, she thought maybe Mr. Colby was waiting for her in a different kind of truck. Then she saw a big yellow bulldozer on the far side of the truck.
Megan’s heart, and her feet, pumped faster.
Just as she reached the field, the bulldozer’s engine s...tarted. She flinched at the sudden loud noise.
A man sat in the cab part of the bulldozer.
“Hello!” Megan called, as she rode toward the bulldozer. “Hello! I need to talk to you!”
The machine’s large steel treads crawled away from the flatbed truck, rolling forward and under like metal conveyor belts as they moved the bulldozer toward the edge of the field that adjoined the freeway on-ramp.
The driver, intent on steering the machine, kept his eyes straight ahead.
This can’t be happening, Megan thought, as she dropped her bike in the weeds and ran toward the bulldozer.MoreLess
