To Jump or Not to Jump

Wondering what it is that the kids are looking at?

It’s a jumping bean that one of Zoe’s friends sent her in the mail. They thought the bean would jump in the cold, so Zoe put it in the refrigerator.

It died.

But, they thought maybe if they brought it out into the sun it might just jump.

It didn’t.

So, what was the next logical thing to do?

Break it open and see what made it jump! Yuck! It sure was a nasty little creature inside that bean!
