Henry And Beezus
“Henry Gets Rich 2 Henry Gets Rich One day after school Mrs. Huggins asked Henry to run down to the market for a pound of ground round steak. On the way home he decided to cut through the vacant lot to see if he could find a Coke bottle to turn in at the supermarket for pennies to add to his bike fund. He was careful to keep the meat out of Ribsy’s reach.
While Henry was looking for bottles, Ribsy, barking excitedly, bounded off into the bushes. Because it was so unusual for his dog to leave a package of meat, Henry followed to see what he was chasing. It was only a neighborhood cat, but when Henry started back to the path, he noticed a piece of gray cardboard with printing on it sticking out of the bushes. He stopped to see what it was.
“Wow!” exclaimed Henry. Thrown carelessly in a hollow, and half hidden by weeds, was a pile of boxes. On the end of each box was printed the words “Double Bubble Gum.”
Telling himself the boxes were probably empty, Henry hastily hid the meat in a bush ...out of his dog’s reach before he eagerly ripped open one of the boxes.MoreLess
