The Bears' House

Everybody in Fran Ellen’s class knows her name. They know that she sucks her thumb and that she smells bad. But they don’t really know anything important about her.
They don’t know that she lives in two houses. One is with her brothers and sisters and sick mother. There is no father in that house, and nobody to take care of the children. Everything is sad and dismal, except for Fran Ellen’s baby sister, Flora, whom she loves best in the world. To keep Flora, Fran Ellen has to lie about that house.
The other house that Fran Ellen lives in is the Bears’ House. Most of the kids think it is only a dolls’ house. For Fran Ellen it is a real house, bright with fun and laughter. In that house Mama Bear cooks and cleans and gives Fran Ellen a beautiful dress with red and yellow flowers. In that house Papa Bear holds Fran Ellen on his lap when she feels unhappy. There is Baby Bear in the Bears’ House, and Goldilocks too. They give Fran Ellen the best birthday party she ever had.
Nobody really knows anything important about Fran Ellen. Only that she sucks her thumb, and smells bad.
