Rich Girl vs Poor Girl - Part 2 The kids who laughed at her paper gift were now lining up to buy one. Part two. After the party, Lily and Rosie became best friends, making things every day at Grandma's table. And Lily noticed something. Rosie's hands could make anything. Crowns, bracelets, tiny paper animals. LILY: Rosie, you're an artist! You should enter the school art fair! ROSIE: Me? They'll just laugh at me again. Lily didn't offer her money. She offered something better. Then we'll do it together. For two weeks, they worked every night. On the day of the fair, the same boy who laughed walked up to their table. He picked up a crown, and went quiet. KID: Can you make one for my little sister? Please? By lunchtime, the line went across the whole hall. Every single bracelet was gone. And the judges gave first prize to Rosie, for the most creative work in the school. With her prize, Rosie bought Grandma new glasses, and made Lily a bracelet with both their names. Talent is something money can't buy. Comment CROWN if you want part three.
