d21fa4d Do you know I ate frog legs once?" Jonah asks. Uh-oh. "You what?" screams a horrified Frederic. "It's true!" Jonah says, clearly not catching the stop talking look I'm shooting him. "We went to a French restaurant for our dad's birthday and he ordered an appetizer of frog legs. Remember, Abby? We tried them! Both of us did!" "It was before I knew you," I tell Frederic apologetically. "They tasted like chicken!" Jonah exclaims. He's right. T.. Sarah Mlynowski
463b570 Well, there are other versions of the story," I say, thinking out loud. "Besides the throwing and the kissing." "Like what?" Frederic asks. I bite my lip. This is going to be worse than the frog-legs conversation. "Well, there's the one where the princess chops off the frog's head, and then he turns into a prince," I say all in a rush. Frederic's eyes almost pop out of his head. "I do not wish to try that one." Sarah Mlynowski

e6d61cc I'm still irritated at the end of the day when my brother, Jonah, and I are standing outside school, waiting for our dad to pick us up. It doesn't help when Brandon says, "Bye, Crabby Abby," as he strolls past me. He walks home from school by himself. Either his parents trust him to make his way home alone or they think he's awful, too, and are hoping he gets kidnapped." Sarah Mlynowski

3e061f6 Is it my imagination or is the flying carpet going a little faster today?" Jonah asks as we coast through the desert. I'm sitting up front with him. Aladdin and Prince are behind us. Prince's ears flap in the breeze. There was no ear flapping yesterday. "It is!" I say. "And a little higher, too. You're definitely getting the hang of magic-carpet flying." We only bumped into two people on the way. "So since I mastered that, can I wear the ri.. Sarah Mlynowski

4ad6a8c And just because your life isn't as awful as someone else's, that doesn't mean it doesn't suck. You can't compare how you feel to the way other people feel. It just doesn't work. What might look like the perfect life--or even an okay life--to you might not be so okay for the person living it. God, Michael Thomas Ford
