Flight of the Honeybee
Silvia Gardner walked down the long tunnel holding her father’s hand. She looked nervous. It was obvious that this was her first time on an airplane. She turned around, her eyes darting left and right as she searched for her mother. For a moment she almost cried out, “Mom!” But then she saw her—just a few people behind. Silvia reached out her hand, and the passengers between them allowed her mother to pass. No mother should be separated from her child, especially one so young.

Mr. Nightingale
I was only 3 years old when Mr. Nightingale came into my life. To me, he was a friend, everything but imaginary. He stood 7 feet tall, dark red skin, black shirt and pants, and a white trench coat that was always clean regardless of what we did together. He also had a black walking stick with a bird on top.

From the Viewpoint of Mike Dotson
Well, Mrs. Bronson, I don’t pretend to know about all of this stuff. My head is full of sports trivia. For example, did you know that Michael Morgan of the Sox went to this school The only reason that I was able to get a passing grade in this class is because I was allowed to color a picture of a banana for extra credit. I thank God that a D- is still considered passing. But a guess that all I need to do is tell you what I saw.
