Daisy: Jenna, it's finally here!
Jenna: Yay! Look, Daisy, I got a new backpack.
Daisy: Cool. I'm using my sister's old one.
Daisy: But that's okay.
I like frogs.
Jenna: I can't wait to go back to South Street School.
Jenna: And meet our teacher, Miss Gray.
Jenna: It's such a nice name.
Jenna: It rhymes with day, play, May . . . all great words!
Daisy: My sister said Miss Gray is really nice—and really pretty.
Jenna: I bet she lets us sit next to each other!
Jenna: Come on! Let's run!
Mark: Ugh! It's the first day of school, Coby!
Coby: Don't remind me.
Mark: What's our teacher's name?
I keep forgetting.
Coby: And I keep telling you, Mark!
It's Miss Gray.
Mark: Oh, right. Gray, like a gloomy rain cloud.
Coby: Or a big, creepy spider!
Mark: Yuck! Second grade is going to be awful!
Coby: So who's your teacher, Jenna?
Jenna: Miss Gray.
Daisy: She's really nice and really pretty.
Mark: That's not what we heard.
Mark: We heard she’s strange.
Coby: Yep. And she looks like an alien to me.
Jenna: What?
Mr. Joe: Welcome back, everyone.
Mr. Joe: It's time to line up with your class.
Daisy: You two are lying.
Mark: Nope. We only tell the truth.
Jenna: Really? She looks like an alien?
Mr. Joe: Make a straight line, kids.
Mr. Joe: Here comes your teacher!
Kids: Huh?
