Lili’s teacher always has the students work with partners, so after that first day, Cassidy has discovered she can walk all over Lili since she’s so quiet. But one day, when a substitute teacher is there, and Cassidy threatens to put glue in the drinking water of the class guinea pig, Lois, Lili finally finds her voice and shouts, “Stop it.” And everyone did, including the entire class, the birds in the sky, and the fishes in the sea. After that, Lili and another quiet classmate, Rita B., decide to not let Cassidy near Lois again. And that’s how they find each other and become friends.
