How to Fish for Trouble — Valerie Wilson Wesley

Here's how the trouble began. It was the day before spring break, and Teddy, my favorite cousin, was coming to stay for the week! Anyway, my dad said we were going kite flying, fishing, and even bird-watching. But the whole week my dad spent more time with Teddy than with me, and Teddy and my big sister, Tina, left me out of EVERYTHING!!! So you can see how Teddy went from being TEDDY F.C. (FAVORITE COUSIN) to T.T.T. (TEDDY THE TERRIBLE).

So...when it came time to go fishing for trouble, I didn't have to go far.

Teddy was my bait.
