Whenever it’s lunch time Charlie sits with his best friend Timmy and makes him read all his books. When he is finish with one Timmy needs to tell him the whole summary about it. They have something called an arrangement- Charlie will buy him an ice cream sandwich and Timmy will tell him all about the book. When Charlie's birthday comes by he always receives books as presents from his parents and he does not like it, except for one time he got a book about his favorite baseball player Billy’s Bargain. Will Charlie ever like reading?
