The people in the house fed Ting twice every day, which gave him plenty of time to rest and play. Ting spent the warm summer days dozing in the sunshine. When he awoke, he liked to chase butterflies and field mice. e also liked to chase his own fine tail. e chased it to the right, and then he chased it to the left. Sometimes he came close to catching his tail, but it was always just out of his reach. 2 One day, a fluffy white kitten came to live at Ting s home. The people named her Missy. Ting tried to pretend Missy wasn t there, but it was hard to ignore her. Missy was friendly, and she liked Ting. She especially enjoyed watching him chase his beautiful tail. 3 You ll never catch it, said Missy, rolling onto her back. She purred in the warmth of the bright sun. Missy s words made Ting want to catch his tail all the more. inally, early one morning, he caught it! Ting firmly held the end of his tail with his teeth. e decided that now that he had caught it, he would never let his tail go. 4 Missy laughed in surprise and went over to lick Ting s ears. It tickled, and Ting wanted her to stop. Usually he would tell her this by thumping his tail on the floor. With his tail in his mouth, though, he couldn t do this. e couldn t speak, either. e just had to put up with the licking. 5 Then, the cats heard their favorite sound. Their food was being poured into two small dishes. Missy ran over to her bowl and started eating, purring loudly with pleasure. Ting tried to run too, but he kept falling down. e reached his bowl just in time. Missy had finished her food. What if she ate his too? e had to stop her! 6 Ting, you can t eat with your tail in your mouth. Shall I eat your food for you? asked Missy, licking her whiskers. 7 No! said Ting, and his tail popped out of his mouth. Quickly, he ate his food. s though happy to be free, his fancy tail twitched in the air. 8 fter that, Ting still liked to chase his tail. ut if he did catch it, he just held it for a second. Then he set his tail free so he could enjoy chasing it again. rtodes R3T402.R1 4

She was part of a big family with a lot of children. Something was always going on. Some of the most interesting things that happened took place on the roof of the house! 2 Maria s father was an astronomer. Maria liked to climb the stairs to the roof and watch the sky and stars with her father. She would press her face against the long metal telescope and sweep for hours. That s what she called looking back and forth across the sky. Maria would move her gaze the same way she would move a broom back and forth to sweep the floor. The telescope made the stars look bigger so she could see them better. 3 Maria wanted to observe the stars all the time. She spent many hours on the roof. In the early 1800 s, there were no women astronomers, but that did not stop Maria! 4 It did not stop Maria s father from helping her, either. e knew Maria needed to read and study. The house was busy. There was no quiet place to study. e asked Maria s mother to take all the sheets out of a closet. e turned the closet into a cozy room where Maria could study. It had a window, a desk, and a light. Maria studied hard. She wanted to learn all she could about the stars. 5 s a young woman, Maria continued to go up to the roof. In the fall of 1847, while she was sweeping, she saw a shiny light that she had not seen before. 6 Maria kept notes of what she saw in the sky. She knew that area had been dark before. She was excited. She knew she was seeing something special. It was a comet a bright hunk of ice, gas, and dust. Maria was the first person to recognize it! 7 Maria became famous for discovering the new comet. She was known as merica s first woman astronomer. In her honor, a crater on the moon was named after her. Maria later became a teacher and taught others what she knew. She helped many people learn that they too could reach for the stars. rtodes R3UPN109.R1 7
