5、ok her piggy bank hard. One last dime fell out. “How much does that make?” she asked her friend Lisa.“Nine dollars in all,” said Lisa.“Thats not enough,” said Kate.Kates little brother, Sam, came into the room. “Whats not enough?” he asked. He hopped onto the bed and started bouncing. “Wow! Look at
6、all the money. What are you going to do with it?”“I was going to buy Dad a toolbox for his birthday,” said Kate. “But the one I want costs twenty dollars. I only have nine.”Sam stopped bouncing. He picked up a dime and handed it to Kate. “You could buy Dad two gum balls,” he said. “The big ones only
7、 cost five cents each.”“Very funny,” she said. “Go play in your own room, Sam.” She gently pushed him out the door. Then she and Lisa put the coins back in the bank.67“Dads birthday is only four days away,” said Kate. “How am I going to get the rest of the money by then?”“Youll think of a way,” said
8、 Lisa. “In the meantime, lets go to the park. Nick and Max will be there by now.”The girls grabbed their baseball mitts. They walked through Kates backyard gate into Pocket Park.The park had houses on the sides and a gate at each end. It was small. But it was just the right size for Kate and her fri
9、ends.810Max and Nick were playing catch.“Hi, you guys,” called Max. “Are you ready to play?” He threw the ball to Kate, but she missed the easy catch. Then, when she tossed the ball back, her throw went wild.Max had to run after it.11The same thing happened the next time Kate threw the ball.“Sorry,
10、Max,” she called as he ran after it. “Ive got something on my mind.”“Like what?” Nick asked.“Like how to get eleven dollars in three days,” Kate said. “I need the money for my dads birthday present.”13Max came running back. He plopped onto a park bench. “Man, playing catch with you is hot work!” he
11、said. “I wish I had a cold drink right now. Id pour it down my throat like this. Glug, glug, glug!”The other kids cracked up.Then Kate thought of something. “Thats it!” she yelled. “I know how to get the money. Ill sell lemonade, right here in Pocket Park.”1415“Good idea!” said Lisa. “Lets see. Youl
12、l need lemonade mix and cups and a stand.”“Ill get a table for the stand,” said Max.“Ill make some signs,” said Nick.“Well all help!” said Lisa.“Thanks, you guys,” said Kate. “I bet Ill make lots of money.”“Enough to buy your dad two presents,” said Nick. He gave Kate a high five.16Kate got the nine
13、 dollars from her bank. She went to the store with her mom. They bought lemonade mix and cups, and Kate still had money left over.When she got home, Kate made two big jugs of lemonade. Lisa helped. Sam tasted.“Just right,” said Sam.18Nick and Max painted big signs. Some of them were a little messy,
14、but Kate didnt mind.19Max got a folding table. He put it by one of the gates into Pocket Park. Lisa covered the table with a white cloth. Nick put up the signs. Kate put out the lemonade and cups. Then they all sat down to wait their first sale.They didnt have to wait long. A little girl came over f
15、rom the swings.“Oooh, lemonade! That looks good,” she said. “Ill take a cup.”Kate poured the lemonade. “That will be fifty cents, please,” she said with a grin.The girl gave Kate the money. She sipped her lemonade. “Mmm. Yummy!” she said.2021“Best lemonade in the park,” said Nick.“Best lemonade in t
16、he world!” said Max.More people bought cups of lemonade. By the end of the day, Kate and her friends had made seven dollars. 24Kate checked the jugs. “This is great,” she said. “Theres lots of lemonade left. And I still have two days to make the rest of the money.” “Im sure you can do it,” said Lisa.2526Just then Sam rode into the park. “Hi, Kate!” he called. “Have you sold any lemonade yet?
