Ellie Tames the Tiger - Callie Barkley
Chapter 1
One Wrong Move
It was Ellie Mitchell’s favorite day of the week: Wednesday, which was drama club day at school. And this was an extra-special one. They were about to run a dress rehearsal for their play, Amazing Animal Acts. Ellie had been cast as Cat. She would be onstage in her costume for the very first time!
Ellie adored her costume. She and her mom had made it together. They started with an orange unitard. Then they added brown ruffles and furry trim.
But the best part was the long, springy cat tail. It bobbed and bounced when Ellie leaped and jumped.
My tail will really help me get into character, Ellie thought.
Inside the auditorium, Mrs. Jameson, the drama teacher, called all the actors over.
Only one week until opening night,
Mrs. Jameson said excitedly. So we’re going to run the whole show today. But first I want to make one change to Cat’s big dance number.
Cat! That’s me! thought Ellie.
Ellie, I’ve added another cat dancer,
said Mrs. Jameson.
Ellie’s shoulders drooped. That number was her big moment in the play!
