Description: IT'S ABOUT TIME! Tick-tock! Tick-tock! Heidi and her best friend Lucy Lancaster stared at the clock in their classroom. Their teacher Mrs. Welli had given the class Choice Time until the end of the day. The girls had chosen to watch the clock. "Our THREE-DAY weekend starts in a few minutes!" said Heidi. Lucy muffled a squeal with the palm of her hand. Bruce Bickerson sat across from the girls. He was reading a book called All About Snakes . "What are you guys doing?" he asked. "We're watching the clock until school lets out," said Heidi without looking at him. "I can see that," said Bruce. "But why?" This time the girls took their eyes off the clock. "Because we're going to Wacky Wonders Adventure Park this weekend!" said Lucy. Heidi bounced in her seat. "Yeah! It has rides, games, and an INDOOR water park!" Lucy nodded excitedly. "Plus their Wonder Thunder roller coaster goes a hundred miles per hour AND upside down!" Bruce's eyes widened. "COOL!" he said. "I've seen the Wacky Wonders ads on TV. Isn't it far from here?" "Yeah," said Lucy, "but that means we're going on a ROAD TRIP!" The girls let out another squeal. "I'm packing treats to munch on the way!" said Heidi. Lucy rubbed her tummy. "And I'll make a playlist of cool songs and download a movie, too!" Heidi flapped her hands excitedly. "It'll be a party on wheels! Then we stay in a hotel at the park!" Both girls broke into the Wacky Wonders theme song. "Come for adventure! Stay for the friends! At Wacky Wonders, the fun never ends!" "Sounds like a blast," said Bruce. "And by the way, you both owe me a THANK-YOU." The girls raised their eyebrows and asked, "For what?" Suddenly the final bell rang. "For taking your minds off the clock," said Bruce with a laugh. "Your weekend starts now!"
