A little girl fondly remembers her visit to the amusement park last year--except that she was too short to ride the roller coaster. This year she is finally big enough to ride.
Initially unhappy that a summer growth spurt has made her the tallest third grader at school, Tina soon realizes the advantages of being able to jump, reach, and step farther than her peers.
A mother provides examples of how her toddler is both big and little, including little enough to ride through the park in a stroller but big enough to make the pigeons fly away.
