On Phumeza’s sixth birthday, Mama gave her
Cover answer:
a toy bear. Bear had bright eyes, golden brown What a re-leaf! 1
hair, a small black nose and a smiley mouth.
On the front of his red vest in big letters was
written: I LOVE YOU. PLEASE LOVE ME.
Everywhere Phumeza went, Bear went with her. She
loved Bear almost as much as she loved Thobeka.
Thobeka was her fve-year-old next-door neighbour, and
her best friend.
One afternoon, Mama had an appointment at the salon.
Phumeza and Thobeka watched through the salon
window as the hairdresser cut Mama’s hair. Thobeka
was especially interested. She watched carefully how the
hairdresser snipped off the hair with razor-sharp scissors.
It looked so easy, and so much fun.
When Thobeka went into the house, Gogo was on her
cell phone, so Thobeka left her alone. Thobeka’s brother
was asleep and she was frightened to wake him.
“Whose hair CAN I cut?” Thobeka wondered.
Outside, Lotto the dog started barking.
Later, Phumeza, Thobeka and Bear played in the yard.
After a while Thobeka ran inside. She came back
carefully carrying her grandmother’s scissors. “Can I cut
your hair?” she asked Phumeza.
“Not today,” replied Phumeza. “I want to go home now.”
“Then I’ll cut my granny’s,” said Thobeka, and she ran
off to fnd her Gogo.
So, Phumeza climbed over the fence and went home
Waving Gogo’s scissors, Thobeka walked down the back … without noticing that she had left Bear sitting by the
steps towards him. Lotto took one look at the scissors fence.
and ran off down the road with his tail between his legs.
