“Purdy smiled and spread his hands. “Good morning, boot campers! It’s Friday!”
“Good morning, Mr. Purdy,” we droned.
I was only half listening because I was thinking about Streak, how she was always so happy to see me when I got home from school.
Mr. Purdy rubbed his hands together. He looked at us, flicked his eyebrows.

I turned back to Mr. Purdy.

We all perked up. Vacation?
Shayla bounced in her seat. “What is it, Mr. Purdy?”
Shayla sat next to me. She was a know-it-all pest, and to make things worse, she was always smiling at me. “She thinks you’re cute,” my friend Maya once told me.
Cute? Blaaach!
“Yeah, Mr. Purdy,” Rubin shouted from the back.MoreLess
