School Days According to Humphrey
“More difficult than any day we had last year in Room 26.
First, Thomas said that he’d seen a wolf while he was walking to school. But Mrs. Brisbane got him to admit it might have been a big dog.
Mrs. Brisbane reminded him not to exaggerate.
Worse yet, Phoebe had forgotten her spelling homework and burst into tears, which made me feel SAD-SAD-SAD.
Next, Mrs. Brisbane asked Paul to come up to the board for some math problems, and both Small-Paul and Tall-Paul jumped out of their seats. When they got up to the board at the same time, they glared at each other.

Tall-Paul turned red and Small-Paul scowled as he returned to his seat.
Small-Paul liked to do math problems in front of the class. Tall-Paul got the problem wrong and turned an even deeper shade of red.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, Kelsey skinned her knee at recess and had to go to the nurse’s office.
Then Mrs. Brisbane had an excellent idea (as ...she often does).MoreLess
