  Suzanne thought so, too. “I wish I could see the look on Becky’s face now,” she said. “But I can’t. Because she and Jessica are sitting all the way back there.” She turned and pointed toward the back rows.

  Katie laughed. Suzanne would be bragging about this for a long time. Some things never changed.

  And maybe that was a good thing. Some things should stay the same. Like Katie’s favorite band. They were perfect just the way they were.

  “Bayside Boys FOREVER!” she shouted.

  Katie’s Kazoo!

  Katie loves music. She listens to the radio all the time, and she loves singing along with her favorite songs. She also plays the clarinet in her school band.

  You can make music too! Just try building your own kazoo.

  You will need: a toilet paper roll

  contact paper

  scissors

  waxed paper

  a rubber band

  This is what you do: 1. Cover the toilet paper roll with the contact paper.

  2. Ask an adult to punch three small holes in the roll with the scissors.

  3. Cut a small square of waxed paper and fit it tightly over the end of the tube.

  4. Use the rubber band to secure the waxed paper to the tube.

  5. Now hum into the open end of the tube. Woohoo! Listen to you. You’re just like Katie Kazoo!
