Behold: The Power of Fries

Mia developed some sort of mental block about reading for her teacher. She'd never done it and when her teacher would bring it up, she would cry. Now she will read to strangers on the street, so I don't know what the problem was. But after months of waiting patiently and weeks of cajoling, I brought out the big guns. Yesterday, I told her that if she read for the teacher, I would take her to McDonald's for a happy meal. Today, she read for the teacher.
