Marie crossed her arms. “Maybe you should run, Hope. Every-

one’s seen these posters, and they might have ruined our chances

at winning. So it might as well be you. Then, when you win, you can

make me ambassador to France.”

“Oh, you’ll still win,” said Hope.

Marie wasn’t as confident as Hope was that she and Noelle would

win. “Let’s get back to the mystery,” she said. “Who would have put up

those posters?”

“Faith,” said Rose, “you’ve been really quiet. Where were you this

morning?”

“I was right behind you, walking to school. You saw me. And, no,

I didn’t make the posters.”

Hope leaned over to Sage. “I wish I could have seen the posters.

Were they really funny? Who was on the hippo?”

“Noelle was on the hippo,” answered Sage. “Marie was on the

elephant.” And then Sage whispered, “And, yes, the posters were

funny. I still think it was one of the boys.”

“There’s a lot we can blame them for,” said Marie. “But not this.”

She smiled at Noelle. “I know who made the posters, and she’s

standing right here.”
