Lucy loves walking to school with her best friends, Zack and Henry. On this glorious spring day it's clear Lucy has spring fever. She's energetic, happy, and anxious to get to school. She is so happy until Miss Whiskers reminds the class that it is show and tell day. Oh no! Lucy forgot to bring something, or did she?
