Ann M. Martin Quote

Janine sat down and began playing pat-a-cake with Lucy. It was very exciting, she replied. Physics and astronomy are a fascinating combination of science— Janine! I exclaimed, irritated. What? She let go of Lucy’s hands. I don’t believe you! I exploded. What? Janine said again. She stood up. I stood, too, and we faced each other. Jamie looked on with interest. You didn’t even ask about Mimi, I accused her. Or about Mom.
