âEven onmy day off! But now I must take my leave. You kids better get back to class. Duty calls!â
Miss Lazar had said âdutyâ again.
After she buzzed away on her scooter, Mr. Klutz pulled at the plunger, but it was stuck to his head pretty tightly. He said he didnât mind, because it had saved his life. But he would look really funny in hats for a while.
All the excitement wasover, and we had to go back inside boring old Ella Mentry School.
Maybe someday weâll find out if Miss Lazar is a real superhero or not. Maybe someday Mr. Klutz will get over his jealousy of Miss Lazar. Maybe someday weâll find out who put the crayons down the toilet. Maybe someday weâll find out what chicken pox has to do with chickens. Maybe someday Mr. Klutz will get the toilet bowl plunger off his head. Maybe someday Iâll be able to hear the word âdutyâ and not start giggling.
But it wonât be easy!
