Sometimes he slept late. Sometimes he couldn’t find his books. Most of the time, though, he and Lucy took a short walk. Today, he smelled something good when he went downstairs. His father was drinking his coffee and his mother was frying bacon. Lucy thought the bacon smelled good, too. She looked hungrily at the sizzling pan. Mrs. Quinn checked her watch. “I’ll have this on the table when you get back, Bobby.” Usually, Lucy got excited when she saw her leash come out. This time she wasn’t sure whether to go or to keep hoping for some bacon. But once outside, Lucy seemed eager to enjoy the crisp fall air. She did her business, and then she and Bobby took a quick walk to the end of the block. Mr. Davis was out picking up his newspaper. “Hey, Bobby. Hey, Lucy,” he said. “I’m glad you’re here. I’ve got some things for you. They’re right here in the front hall.” When Mr. Davis came back, he was holding a book—and something else—in his hands. The book was Treasure Island.
