Uzzle, the Football Star Uzzle loves football. He plays it at the playground. He even dreams about it at night. One day, he and Jupe see a football helmet in a store window. "If I had that helmet, I would be a star," he says. Uzzle looks at the price. "It costs too much money," he says. "Maybe there is a helmet like that at a thrift store," says Jupe. "Great idea!" says Uzzle. Uzzle and Jupe go to the thrift store. There are cowboy hats. There are baseball caps. But there are no football helmets. They go to another thrift store. There are hard hats. There are top hats. But there are no football helmets. They go to the last thrift store. Uzzle sees a football helmet! Uzzle tries it on. The helmet slips over his eyes. "Does it fit?" asks Jupe. "It is too big, but monster heads grow fast," says Uzzle. Uzzle wears his too-big football helmet. He bumps into walls. He trips on the curb. He tips the helmet to look in the mirror. "I look like a star," he says. He goes to the playground. Jupe is there. "You can't play football in a too-big helmet," she says. "Yes, I can," says Uzzle. But Uzzle can't pass, punt, or kick. Instead, he misses, trips, and falls. Just then, Lurk comes to play football. Uzzle tips his helmet. He sees that Lurk's head is much bigger than his head. "That's a cool helmet," Lurk says. Uzzle thinks. "I wish I had a helmet like that," Lurk says. Uzzle thinks some more. Finally, Uzzle takes off the too-big helmet. "It doesn't fit me, but maybe it will fit you," Uzzle says. Lurk slips it on. "It fits!" he says. "Thank you, Uzzle!" Then Uzzle, Jupe, and Lurk play football. Uzzle can pass agaĂn. He can punt and kick again. He can even score! "You're a star even without that too-big helmet," says Jupe. "I am?" says Uzzle. "You are," says Lurk in his helmet that is just right!

Carlos's Family Celebration It's Mexican Independence Day! Carlos and Selena are getting ready for a big party. "We can decorate the house," says Carlos. "Let's paint a picture of our family." "Mama was born first. She is the oldest," says Carlos. "Papa was born second," Carlos says. "He is one year younger." "Next is Mateo," says Carlos. "He is Mama and Papa's first child." "After Mateo, you were born," says Selena. "That's right!" says Carlos. I am Mama and Papa's second child." "What about me?" asks Selena. "You were the last to be born," says Carlos. "You are the youngest." "There!" says Carlos. "Our family picture is done!" "Green, white, and red are the colors of the Mexican flag," says Carlos. Carlos and Selena blow up five green balloons. They blow up five white balloons and five red balloons, too. "I'm out of breath!" says Selena. "Let's see,"says Carlos. "We painted a picture first. We blew up balloons second. The third thing we can do is fill the piĂąata.â Carlos gets the big star piĂąata from the shelf. Carlos and Selena stuff the piĂąata with candy. When Selena thinks Carlos isn't looking, she pops a piece of candy into her mouth. Carlos gives her a hug. "You are silly," he says. Mateo hangs the piĂąata in the apartment's grassy yard. "We need a blindfold," says Carlos. "And a stick to break the piĂąata, too." Abuela finds a red-checked scarf for Carlos and a long stick for Selena. "The piĂąata is ready!" says Carlos. "The fourth thing to do is practice dancing, Selena!" Carlos and Selena dress in their party clothes. Then, they dance and spin. Soon, the house fills up with food, family, and music. There are cousins, aunts, uncles, new babies, and new friends. There is Papa, Mama, Mateo, Carlos and Selena, too. "There is one last thing we can do," Carlos says. "And it's the most fun!" "What is it?" asks Selena. "CELEBRATE!" says Carlos.

Hey! You in the corner of the library with your nose stuck in a book. Yes, you. Donât recognize me without that awful perm, do you? (Remind me again why you thought that was a good idea?) Anyway, I hope you donât mind if I sit with you for a minute, but we need to talk. Donât worry about the âno talking in the libraryâ rule. Iâm sure weâll be fine. Librarians arenât as bad as they seem. Judging from the hair and braces Iâd have to guess youâre in your junior year. Yes? Thought so. Iâd forgotten how many lonely lunch hours you spent in the school library. You have some friends in the cafeteria that you could sit with, but you donât feel like you really fit in, do you? Thatâs why you joined every school club you could. I just counted and youâre in eighteen, not to mention the numerous after-school activities youâre involved in. I mean honestly, you joined the ROTC.1 You donât even like ROTC! And I wonât even bother bringing up that time you tried ballet. Iâm still having nightmares about the fifth position! Let me ask you, howâs it all working out? Not very well, am I right? By spending so much time trying to find yourself, youâre slowly losing yourself. We donât all have one single rock-star talent, and honestly, I think those of us who donât are the lucky ones. Life isnât about finding the one thing youâre good at and never doing anything else; itâs about exploring yourself and finding out who you really are on your own terms and in your own way. You donât have to exhaust yourself to do that. Oh, donât be so down in the dumps about it. Youâll eventually find something youâre good at, I promise. Itâs a long, winding road to get there, but youâll find it. Being able to spend all day doing what you love (or one of the things that you love) is the most amazing feeling in the world. And no, I wonât tell you what it is, so donât even ask me. Just remember to always be yourself, because thereâs nobody else who can do it for you. I think E. E. Cummings put it best when he said, âIt takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.â Looks like the bell is about to ring so Iâll leave you to your book. What are you reading, anyway? Oh, The Last Battle by C. S. Lewis. I should have guessed. You should give those Harry Potter books a try. I saw you roll your eyes! I know they seem like just another fad, but trust me, theyâre better than you think. Theyâve got a real future! finding out who you really are on your own terms and in your own way.
