On the other hand, Roy played with the other boys, usually soccer or sometimes softball. He always noticed Mike sitting out in the playground. He felt sorry for him. One day he came up to Mike. Some kids were making fun of him and Roy threatened them and away they went. Roy and Mike began to speak to each other after that and never stopped. Mike told Roy of matters he never heard before like, looking through a telescope and microscope and seeing a whole other world. One day Mike and Roy became separated during a terrible storm. Roy was lost and. Just have to read the story. It is so good!
