Oranges, winter, coins

[Emma]

Ok this is very random. In middle school we read this short story. All I remember is that it takes place during winter time, and I remember oranges, and coins. I remember really loving the story but can’t remember much else. Maybe winter, grocery store, and oranges will jog someone’s memory, though. I would imagine it is read to students a lot in middle school, if it was read at my middle school. Thanks!

Unfortunately, oranges are a traditional Christmas gift, so there's quite a number of books that have children receiving oranges.

When were you in middle school?

You posted about this in 2019. I'm going to delete that thread since you hadn't put any plot details into its topic header.

Emma, that's a start but you need to add genre (e.g., children's novel or picture book?) and plot details to the topic header (title). We have thousands of book requests. We close threads with vague headers.

Click the small "edit" link after the header to update it. This only works on the full Desktop website - not the Mobile website or app. (On the Mobile website, there's a "Desktop version" link at the bottom of the page.)

- Around what year did you read this book? A range of years is fine. This will help us narrow down the search.
