This year is different. They could not go to their grandparents’ home. It is too far and their father cannot leave work for long enough. Sam and Sally are sad. Father has an idea. “You can ask Roger to our home for Thanksgiving. He does not have a father, and his mother doesn’t have a good job. They would like a big Thanksgiving dinner with some friends.” Sally didn’t seem very happy about the idea. Father said, “What’s the matter, Sally? You don’t like Roger?” “Other children at school don’t like him. They tease him. If they know he has been to my home, they will make fun of me, too!” “Why do they tease him?” “Well, his ears are big. He wears the same clothes a week. His shoes are very old,” “Maybe his mother was poor. We should be kind to others. I think Roger needs some friends. We will ask Roger and his mother to our home this Thanksgiving.” Thanksgiving came at last. Sally was helping her mother with dinner when the doorbell rang.
