Lucy’s Perfect Summer (A Lucy Novel)
by Nancy Rue
Why My Life Is Just About Perfect
School is out for the summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lucy would have made more exclamation points, but Lollipop, her pot-bellied kitty, was watching from the windowsill above the bed, her black head bobbing with each stroke and dot. She’d be pouncing in a second.
Lucy protected the Book of Lists with her other arm and wrote…
2. Aunt Karen is taking her vacation to some island so she won’t be coming HERE for a while. YES!!
3. We have a soccer game in two weeks, thanks to Coach Auggy. A for-REAL game, with a whole other team, not just our team split up, which is always lame since we only have 8 players to begin with. I cannot WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lollipop twitched an ear.

On the Run
by Bill Myers
“Beginnings …”
Zach Dawkins headed for the schools.
“Schools” as in the high school, junior high, and elementary school that were all lined up side by side on the same street. “Death Row,” he called it.
Zach was pretty good looking—sixteen with dark hair that stuck out in so many directions it looked like it got cut by a lawnmower gone berserk. It’s not that Zack was sloppy … he just had better things to do than worry about his looks—especially when he was late for school, which was like every day.
