It’s me, Cowabelle. Today was our Thanksgiving Pageant at school and I wish I could say that my star turn went off without a hitch but I can’t. Fortunately, thanks to my best friend, Roberta, things could have turned out a lot worse.
I think I got so caught up in being the star of the show that I let it go to my head a bit. I know I wasn’t being as considerate of Roberta as I should. I thought she should just grow up and stop complaining about having to be a tree. I mean – not everyone can be the star, right?
But maybe I should have focused more on learning my lines than being a star, because today when I was up on stage, I completely forgot my lines and froze! It was horrible – I didn’t know what to do!
Luckily I happen to have the best friend ever because suddenly the tree next to me started whispering my lines to me! Roberta was there beside me to save the day! I guess that while she was standing around ‘treeing’, she had nothing better to do than memorize the play. And even though I’ve been kind of full of myself and she’s had such a small role, she wasn’t about to stand by and let me fail.
After the play Ms. Stripes congratulated Roberta for saving the day and said that she knew that Roberta was just the one to handle an important role next time.
Afterward I told Roberta that even though she might not want to hear it, I thought she made a perfect tree. When she asked my why I told it was because she was always there for me to lean on!
it looks really nice
