ONE
It was three days before New Year’s Eve. Things were popping on Blossom Hill Lane.
Stacy Henry was buzzing with an idea. Her real cool idea had started out teeny-weeny. But during the Cul-de-sac Kids club meeting it grew. And grew.
And grew!
She couldn’t keep it to herself any longer.
“Let’s do something really fun for the New Year,” she suggested.
“Yay!” the girls shouted.
“Like what?” Jason Birchall spoke up.
Stacy twirled her hair. “It’s that time of year, isn’t it?”
“What’re you talking about?” asked Jason, pushing up his glasses. “ What time of year?”
“I’ll give you three guesses, but only three.” She squeezed in next to Abby Hunter in the president’s seat a bean-bag chair.
Abby was the president of the Cul-de-sac Kids club. A neighborhood club with nine members. Each club member lived on Blossom Hill Lane, which was really a dead-end street. A cul-de-sac, shaped like aU.
Abby grinned. “I like guessing games. Who wants to guess first?”
“I will!” Dee Dee Winters stood up. She pulled up her knee socks. Then she put her finger on her lip. “My guess is it’s time to go group sledding. That’s really fun!”
Stacy nodded her head. “You’re right, going sledding together is lots of fun. But that’s not what I was thinking.”
“Who’s next?” asked Abby. “This is the second guess, remember.”
Dunkum Mitchell raised his hand. “It’s time to think about the New Year? Maybe write down some goals or something. That’s my guess,” he said.
Stacy looked at Abby and whispered, “He’s almost got it.”
Abby grinned at Dunkum. “Stacy says you’re real close. Wanna guess again?”
Dunkum, whose real name was Edward, shook his head no. The kids nicknamed him Dunkum because he was tall. So tall he could dunk a basketball. Every time . . . almost.
“OK,” said Stacy. “Since Dunkum nearly guessed it, I’ll tell my idea.”
The kids leaned forward. Their eyes were big as bowls.
“I want to make some changes in myself,” Stacy said. “Like grown-ups do every New Year.”
“Oh, no. Not grown-up stuff!” Jason complained. He rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue. “That’s so dumb.”
Eric Hagel frowned at Jason. “Don’t say ‘dumb.’ It’s not cool. Besides, Stacy’s idea might be more fun than you think.”
Carly Abby’s little sister grabbed Dee Dee’s hand. They were best friends. “I don’t care what Jason says. I wanna make some changes for the New Year, too.
