Page 212 - Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1

Monday

I was hoping Mrs. Norton would just cut me from

the play, but today she said that everyone who

tried out is going to get a part. So lucky me.

Mrs. Norton showed “The Wizard of Oz” movie

so everyone would know the story. I was trying

to figure out what part I should play, but

pretty much every character has to sing or dance

at one point or another. But about halfway

through the movie, I figured out what part I

wanted to sign up for. I’m going to sign up to

be a Tree, because 1) they don’t have to sing

and 2) they get to bean Dorothy with apples.
