How does Mr. Henderson feel about Lily helping him?

Lily skipped down the sidewalk, her bright red sneakers flashing with every bounce. The sun warmed her face as she imagined herself a superhero, soaring through the air. Suddenly, a loud BANG echoed from the alleyway. Lily's heart pounded. Peeking inside, she saw Mr. Henderson, the grumpy old man from next door, struggling to lift a heavy box. "Need some help, Mr. Henderson?" she asked, her voice a little shaky. Mr. Henderson, surprised, grumbled, "Don't need no help from a kid." But Lily, remembering her superhero training, insisted. Together, they carefully lifted the box, and Mr. Henderson, a little embarrassed, mumbled a thank you. Lily smiled. Maybe being a superhero wasn't about flying, but about helping others.

• Mr. Henderson tells Lily to go away.

• Mr. Henderson is grateful in the end that Lily helps him.

• Mr. Henderson ignores Lily.

How does Sophie feel when the ice cream accident first happens?

The ice cream truck's cheerful music filled the air. I am little girl named Sophie and I raced down the sidewalk. My ice cream cone was dripping a sugary trail behind me.

I cried, tears welling up in my eyes. The boy, surprised, quickly pulled out a tissue from his pocket and offered it to me. "I'm so sorry," he said, his eyes wide with concern. "It's okay," I sniffled, "but my ice cream!" He smiled, "Don't worry, I'll buy you another one." And so, with a newfound friend and a new ice cream cone, Sophie continued down the sunny street, feeling much happier than before.
