Reading No one had tried to break the window. It was simply an accident. Rosemary and Leslie were playing

basketball in front of Rosemary's garage. As usual, Leslie had won.It wasn't that Rosemary wasn't a skilled basketball player. In fact, she was exceptionally talented. She had a

superior jump shot. She could dribble equally well with both hands. She was accomplished at grabbing rebounds. Thetrouble was that she easily became distracted. In the middle of a game she would see a neighbour's automobile drive

by. Instead of concentrating on playing basketball, she would wave to say hello. Sometimes, in the middle of taking ashot, she would begin thinking about what she wanted for dinner.

Anyway, after the game was finished, Leslie threw the ball to Rosemary. As usual, however, Rosemary wasthinking about something else. The ball sailed straight past her and through the living room window.

"Oh, no!" shouted Leslie. "We have to go explain to your parents"."You're right", said Rosemary. "Let's find them before they come to us".
