Chicken Sunday by Patricia Polacco
Drawing on her childhood, Polacco tells the story of how she
and her two best friends buy a special Easter hat that Stewart
and Winston's grandma Eula Mae Walker has admired in a shop
window. They plan to approach the haberdasher, Mr. Kodinski,
and offer to work to help pay for the hat. They arrive at his
shop just as a group of neighborhood boys is running away.
Seeing the three outside, Mr. Kodinski unjustly accuses them
of splattering his shop with eggs. They return with a basket
of Pysanky eggs to protest their innocence, and Mr. Kodinski
invites them in for tea. When he learns of their wish to earn
money, he suggests they sell their Pysanky eggs in his shop.
At the end of the day, Mr. Kodinski refuses their money and
gives them the hat for Miss Eula.
