Eric and Maylee sell chocolate bars to people who work at their school so their class can earn enough money to go on a field trip to the zoo. If they sell the most candy, they will become the chocolate champs and get to ride on the elephant. |
“Eric counted the tally marks. "We've sold 24 candy bars," he said. "Why stop now?" asked Mylee. "We're on a roll."”
