Once upon a time there live a girl named Katie. She lived with her Grandmother and they were very poor. Her Grandmother was a very loving and friendly person. She doted on Katie, but Katie was a very unhappy child. All of the children at school made fun of Katie because she didn't have nice clothes.
One day Grams needed something at the store, so she sent Katie. On her way to the store Katie walked past Vicki's house. Vicki lived in a beautiful mansion and there were a lot of people outside of her house.
Katie stopped and imagined that she lived outside of this beautiful house.
"Well hello, Miss Katie,would you like to come in to see Vicki's new dollhouse?"Missy, the mad asked Katie.
"What?Yes I would love to, but Vicki would never let me, she doesn't like me", replied Katie.
"Well, in that case, Miss Vicki won't find out."Missy grabbed ahold of Vicki's hand and led her into the backyard.There stood the most beautiful cottage that Katie had ever seen.
"Who loves in there?"asked Katie.
"That, my precious, is Vicki's dollhouse."replied Missy."Now you come on and go right in. Make yourself at home, and I will go get us something to eat"
Katie went inside and looked all around. There were dolls and teddy bears everywhere. They looked like they cost a lot, so Katie tried not to touch them. Missy came in wiht some sandwiches and they went into the kitchen to eat them.
"This place is beautiful,but I have to go home soon, or else vicki will be home and you will get into trouble for letting me in."
"That's nonsence, my Dear",replied Missy,"If Vicki doesn't like it too bad! C'mon I will give you a tour of this place."
She took her to the living room, the dining room, sitting room and then they went upstairs. There were three bedrooms up there and they were all beautiful. There was a pink one, a purple one and a white one. Katie fell in love with the pink one.
"I wish I had a room as beautiful as this one" Katie said looking into the pink one,"Pink is my favourite color."
"Well, you just go right on in and tell me if that bed is as comfortable as it looks.I have to go down and clean th kitchen up, and I want you to lie down on that bed until I get back up here."
Katie went into the pink room and sat on the bed."It feels as though I am sitting on a cloud", Katie thought to herself,"I'd better lie down like Missy said or else she will be mad.
A while later, Vicki came home. "Missy, what is the door to my dollhouse doing open?" Asked Vicki.
"Oh Miss Vicki, I had almost forgotten, that sweet little girl down the road, Katie, was on her way to the store, looking unhappy as usual, so I invited her in, and she has fallen asleep in one of the rooms"
"YOU WHAT???????"Screamed Vicki. "Missy, she is very poor, you don't know hwat kind of dirt she has taken into my dollhouse, you go up there and tell her to get out NOW!!"
"I most certianally will not!", replied Missy, "Katie may be poor, but she is not dirty, have you ever talked to her? Or did you decide you didn't like her because she was poor?"
Vicki thought for a minute," I guess you are right, Missy, I have never talked to her, I just thought that since she was poor, it didn't matter."
"You go right up there and tell that girl that you are sorry, make her one of your friends. Heavens knows that she needs all the friends she can get."
Vicki went up to talk to Katie, she really liked her. They became bestfriends, and lived happily ever after.
