Never Hold Mommy's Hand (2 ratings) by Eddie Henry
Page 1 of 1 A Rainy Day
All it did was rain, rain, rain all day. The sun did not come out one bit
for the whole day. Julie says it's because no one was nice to her yesterday. I
don't believe it. I just believe it's some hocus pocus she put on the sky that
makes it rain. Mama says that when the bed bugs bite it always rains the next
day. But I know she is joking me because she always smiles when she says so.
Me and My Mommy
My name is Sandra Fulerton. That's S - A - N - D - A or whatever you want to
spell it. I am only three years old but I talk pretty good for my age. At least
that's what my Mama says. She named me Sandra because I remind her of the sand
at the beach. Sandy Sandra is my nickname and I think it is the best name in
the WHOLE world.
Grumpy Daddy
My daddy is a grumpy guy and loves to make fun of me. He calls me freckle
face dragon, pee-pee monster, and poopie poop that lost her shoe. He only acts
this way when he drinks out of a brownish bottle called Carona or something
like that. I think it is a secret potion that my Mom whips up when she is mad
at me! But that's okay because I have Uncle and Aunt's that can take better
care of me if something goes wrong.
The Lesson
One day I was doing my chores as usual when my Mommy told me to throw out
the trash. I did not even know what trash was! Finally my Mom took my hand and
trotted me down a narrow alley. Boy, it was scary! I saw a big grayish can and
I had to throw the trash into the can. By the time we were inside I was tired.
But I am thankful that I did it because it taught me a lesson. Never hold my
Mommy's hand!!!!!
