The Squeak Scouts are taking their very first field trip to the attic, and Albert is determined to bring home something special for his souvenir collection. Luckily, the attic is full of mysterious surprises! |
“"But we need to stay together so no one gets lost." Agnes passed out safety vests, each with a number on it. Albert looked down. His number was 2. "When I call, 'Count off'," Agnes said, "line up in order and call out your numbers. That's how I'll know if anyone is missing."”
