Jambo’s Dream

The next day, he decided that he did not want to

continue selling so he stayed at home. Then there

was a knock at the door. “Jambo!” his mom
shouted, “Come here!” With a sigh, he rushed

downstairs and, to his surprise, there was the old

lady. “Hello, Jambo. I am Mrs Moss,” she said. “See

that music school over there?” She pointed to the

tall, shiny building. Jambo did not need to look.
She continued, “I own it.” Jambo was surprised but

kept his mouth shut. “If you promise to do your

best at school, I promise to give you as much

lessons as you want for free.” When Mrs Moss left,

Jambo took his guitar and hugged it tightly. He

started dreaming about all the music he would
play.
