Several minutes later, Nancy began to have supper with Mummy.
“Who 39 that you are bad?” asked Mummy.
“Phillips, my friend. He asked me for help with his maths but I 40 because I wanted to read the new book Daddy gave me. He got 41 and said I was a bad girl,” said Nancy.
“You are 42 ,” said Mummy. “Phillips has often helped you with your English. You should have helped him. Why don’t you phone him and say 43 to him?”
“But he called me bad and 44 with me. I don’t want to go,” Nancy cried.
“Though you have done 45 bad, it does not make you a bad person. You are 46 a good person.”
Nancy showed a 47 look on her face. “How can that be, Mummy?” she asked.
“Our 48 is always good. So never believe that you are bad,” Mummy replied with a smile.

“Yes, you are good, and always will be so. But that does not mean that you should not 51 the wrong that you do. You will have to call and 52 to Phillips. Do you understand me?”
“Yes, Mummy,” said Nancy slowly. “Thank you for telling me this. I feel much better now,” said Nancy 53 . “I am going to 54 Phillips right away, and I am never going to 55 that I am always good.”
