Chapter One
Along for the Ride
I sat moping in the house on a Wednesday afternoon. It was a perfect September day. I had finished my school work early, and I was dying to go out, but I was stuck inside because of Garrett.
Garrett is our neighbor’s little boy, almost two years old. My mom always watches him on Wednesdays. Each week, one of us (me, my eleven-year-old sister Hannah, or my sixyear-old brother Noah) takes a turn watching him for a half-hour, while my mom does other stuff. He’s a really cute kid, but the problem was, I couldn’t bring him outside because he has allergies.
“Cabe,” said Garrett. That’s what he calls me because he can’t say my name, Caleb.
I patted his head. He has silky, soft brown hair.
“Cabe pway.” Garrett looked a little sad, like he didn’t understand why I was just sitting there.
“Sorry, Garrett,” I said. “I’m just mad at your allergies. What do you want to play?”
For an answer, he started pulling books off the bottom bookshelf in the living room and dropping them on the floor.
I dumped out a box of blocks and started building a tower to distract him. It worked. He came over and knocked down the tower.
