Ashlyn’s Surprise
It is a bright and breezy day, and Ashlyn is skipping into her friend, Willa’s, aunt’s garden. She has a surprise for all her friends, and she’s very excited about it. She shows her friends the pretty jump ropes she brought. There’s one for each girl: a pink one for her, a purple one for Kendall, green for Willa, yellow for Emerson, and blue for Camille.
Soon, all five girls are jumping rope through the garden. Suddenly, Camille, at the front of the line, stops. “Hey. Look. My front tooth fell out.”
The girls gather around Camille to see her tooth. Kendall asks how it happened, and Camille explains that she just wiggled it. She demonstrates on her other front tooth, while she recites a little rhyme she made up:
I wiggled it
And jiggled it
A little bit.
Just wiggled it
And jiggled it
A little bit.
Soon, all the girls are reciting the rhyme and dancing around. And then, Camille stops. “Yiketh!” she exclaims! Her other front tooth came out, too.
