Gymnastics Queen - Marci Peschke
Cover
My name is Kylie Jean Carter. I live in a big, sunny, yellow house on Peachtree Lane in Jacksonville, Texas, with Momma, Daddy, and my two brothers, T.J. and Ugly Brother.
T.J. is my older brother, and Ugly Brother is… well… he’s really a dog. Don’t you go telling him he is a dog. Okay? I mean it. He thinks he is a real, true person.
He is a black-and-white bulldog. His front looks like his back, all smashed in. His face is all droopy like he’s sad, but he’s not.
His two front teeth stick out, and his tongue hangs down. (Now you know why his name is Ugly Brother.)
Everyone I love to the moon and back lives in Jacksonville. Nanny, Pa, Granny, Pappy, my aunts, my uncles, and my cousins all live here. I’m extra lucky, because I can see all of them any time I want to!
My momma says I’m pretty. She says I have eyes as blue as the summer sky and a smile as sweet as an angel. (Momma says pretty is as pretty does. That means being nice to the old folks, taking care of little animals, and respecting my momma and daddy.)
But I’m pretty on the outside and on the inside. My hair is long, brown, and curly.
I wear it in a ponytail sometimes, but my absolute most favorite is when Momma pulls it back in a princess style on special days.
I just gave you a little hint about my big dream. Ever since I was a bitty baby I have wanted to be an honest-to-goodness beauty queen. I even know the wave. It’s side to side, nice and slow, with a dazzling smile. I practice all the time, because everybody knows beauty queens need to have a perfect wave.
I’m Kylie Jean, and I’m going to be a beauty queen. Just you wait and see!
It’s afternoon, and I’m lying on my bed, staring at my ceiling again. Outside it is hotter than a firecracker in July! I swear, Momma could fry some eggs right on our front walkway. Yup, it’s summer in Texas, all right!
Mr. Weather Man says that we have had fifty straight days over one hundred degrees. I’m hot and bored. Momma wants me to stay inside unless it is early in the morning or late at night. That’s when it finally cools down a tiny bit.
I’m trying to find things to do inside. In my room, the air conditioner blows all day long. By dinnertime it’s as worn out as a lawn mower on the last day of summer.
I call my best cousin, Lucy, on the phone. Then I remember she’s gone away on vacation to see her grandparents. I sigh. Ugly Brother looks at me with his sad old puppy dog eyes.
We’ve just got to find something to do!
I say.
Ruff, ruff!
