My New Scooter, it was amazing. I couldn't keep my eyes offit. The way it shone in the light kept
drawing my eye back to it. My dad noticed. "Sophie, you have a scçoter already, a really nice one!"
"I know but look at this one! It's so shiny and new," I said. "It is great, but we have to get going.
Come on," said Dad. We left the store, with me taking one last glance back at the new scooter. I
knew my scooter was nice, and it still worked even though I'd gotten it for my birthday 3 years
ago. I just couldn't stop thinking of that new scooter! A few weeks later, Dad and I were back in
the store. The scooter wasn't on display where it was before, but as we passed the toy section, I
kept my eyes open for it. There it was, with a big sale sign on it! I couldn't help myself; I ran right
over to it. Dad looked at the price.
“I know you've been thinking about this scooter a lot, Sophie, and you haven't asked for much
from me or mom lately. You've been helpful around the house, too. The sale price is pretty good,
though it's still a lot of money. I can't just buy this for you, but what if I pay for part of it, then
lend you the money for the rest of the scooter, and you promise to pay me back?" Dad asked.
"Would you really?" I said excitedly. “I promise I will pay you back, I will!" "Sure, let's get it," said
Dad as he picked up the box. As we were walking toward the registers, Dad asked me if I knew
what it meant to borrow money. "Yes, it means that I have to give it back to you," I answered.
Dad responded, "You're right, but you can give it back to me a little at a time. Right now, you get
five dollars a week for your allowance. Instead of using it for a little treat, you could pay it back
to me until you pay off your part of the scooter. It will take a couple of months for you to be done
paying me back for it if you do that. Does that work for you?"
"Sure, Dad! Thank you so much, I can't wait to use my new scooter! I will pay you back with my
allowance until I return all the money, I'm borrowing from you today. You're the best!"
