Daisy’s Wonderful Word Lists
Chapter One
Daisy liked knowing all the words to a song and singing them loudly while she danced around the house. She liked making cookies and using at least three different colors of frosting to decorate them. She liked making friendship bracelets with her best friend, Emma, and swearing to Emma that she would never take hers off.
Daisy especially liked riding her bike to the library to check out books. Books were full of words. And even more than making cookies or singing loudly, Daisy loved words. She kept track of her favorite words in a green notebook covered with purple polka dots.
On this particular day, Daisy carried her notebook in her backpack on the way to school. Now that it was early spring, Daisy and Emma often walked with their neighbor, Samantha. They used to try to avoid Samantha because she had only wanted to use words like stop and mine. But now Samantha was a lot more fun.
The only problem was that walking with Samantha also meant walking with Samantha’s younger brother, Grant. He and his friends used words like smelly and gross. Usually, the girls didn’t pay much attention to Grant, but today, Daisy found herself listening to his conversation.
We learned about rhymes yesterday,
he said.
