Trading Cards

The back of Kirsten's trading card reads:
A Special School Day
On Recitation Day, Kirsten was excited-and nervous. All the parents were coming to Powderkeg School. One by one, the students would stand alone at the front of the schoolroom and recite a poem by heart. Kirsten wanted to do a good job and make Mama and Papa proud. On this special day, Kirsten wore her best coat and hat to school. Mama had sewed the coat by hand, using wool that she had woven by hand. Kirsten didn't want to get her coat dirty, so at recess she played a quiet game of beanbag-toss. She cheered when her beanbag hit the bull's-eye![1]
