They were in the same class at school and often visited each other at home on weekends. When they were both eight years old, Lucy's mother gave birth to a baby. Lucy was overjoyed to have a little sister and always talked to Helen about it, who had no brothers or sisters. At first, Helen was very interested in the new baby, but after a while, she found it boring. She was also a little jealous. When the two girls were playing in the schoolyard one morning, Lucy enthusiastically said to her friend: "You know, Helen? My little sister has gained almost two hundred grams this week." "That's not a lot," Helen replied. "I know a baby that is gaining five kilograms a day." "Oh, that can't be true," Lucy replied contemptuously. "Whose baby is it?" "An elephant’s," said Helen.
