explain quietly so that only she would hear.“I made a bad choice and put petroleum gel on the bottoms of my sisters shoes,and they couldnt walk without falling.I love you,and we all wanted this to be your special day,so I walked with them to help them keep their balance.I am so sorry.I know it wasnt the way you wanted it.”Morty turned to see his sisters ears perked upthey had been listening.“I am sorry to both of you,too,”he added quietly.Mortys aunt seemed to glow as she broke into a big smile.“Well,it worked out just fine,”she said,hugging Morty again.“I am the only bride I know that had a flower boy along with two flower girls.”One of Mortys little sisters spoke up,“It was kind of nice to have him up there.It was a long time to stand,and it helped to have Morty to hold onto.”Father had joined the conversation and was the last to speak.Putting a paw on his sons head,he said,“Morty,I have never seen you stand so still and be so quiet for so long.”Perhaps enduring that very uncomfortable situation was enough of a punishment.”Morty sighed with relief.Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S34Morty could only think of one thing that was worse than wasting a Saturday at a boring wedding.He would be missing his best friends party at the same time.Tomorrow was the big day,and every mouse in the house was panicking over the final details of their role in Aunt Maggies wedding.His younger sisters were practicing their“slow walk”as flower mice,his big sister was doing her nails to look perfect while serving punch,and Mother was arranging large bunches of flowers.Mortys job was to shine everyones shoes,wear a suit,and sit quietly.Thats righthe had to sit quietly while Ben and his birthday party guests would be screaming down the skate-park ramps and eating cheese pizza.Grabbing the shoeshine kit,Morty flung his tail aside and plopped down on the floor.The dress-up shoes of the entire mouse family were lined up neatly in front of him.Morty didnt mind shining the shoes.Hed watched the shoe shiners in front of Mousys,the most upscale department store in the Mousetown Mall.They worked quickly and methodically,while whistling or talking baseball with their customers.Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S34Morty could only think of one thing that was worse than wasting a Saturday at a boring wedding.He would be missing his best friends

uncomfortable the farther up the aisle he walked.The guests giggled when they saw Morty walking the flower mice down the aisle.The ceremony seemed to last a lifetime,and Morty could feel drops of sweat trickling down his back as people stared at him.He tried to stand so still that not even his whiskers or ears twitched,but it was difficult.His sisters paws were warm on his arms and their flowers scents were tickling his nose.Aunt Maggie found Morty after the ceremony and gave him a warm hug.“I noticed that I had an extra flower mouse in my wedding.I had no idea that you wanted to be a flower mouse.Why didnt you just ask?”Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S56The shoeshine kit had it allblack shoe polish,brushes,rags,and petroleum gel to put an extra shine on his sisters and mothers patent leather shoes.Morty pulled out the black polish and a chamois(SHA-mee)rag.First he smeared on the dark,inky polish.Then he whipped the rag around and,holding the strip of material on both ends,started“scuffin and buffin”his and his dads shoes.Morty took a big sniff of the wonderful smell of his black leather going-out shoes.Then he noticed how his dads dress-up loafers looked practically new by the time he finished shining them.Im good,he thought.I wonderhow old I need to be to work at Mousys.Next up were the shiny black shoes of his mother and sisters.Morty thought about his sisters.“Ugh,those two are driving me crazy!”he mumbled.His younger sisters had been getting all the attention because of their roles in the wedding.They got fancy new dresses,they were getting their hair and whiskers styled,and Mother was even taking them to get a special mouse manicure.“What do I get?”Morty asked out loud.“I get to wear the old,stuffy suit that I wore to Great-Uncle Finnegans funeral.”Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S56The shoeshine kit had it allblack shoe polish,brushes,rags,and petroleum gel to put an extra shine on his sisters and mothers patent

I had an extra flower mouse in my wedding.I had no idea that you wanted to be a flower mouse.Why didnt you just ask?”Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S1314 The WeddingSoft music played and Mortys little sisters,carrying baskets of flower petals,stepped off the carpet and onto the walkway up the aisle.In no time they were slip-sliding and flower petals went flying.Father quickly stepped into the aisle and picked up his daughters.The greasy trail behind them looked just like slug slime,and Father quickly checked the bottom of their shoes to discover the cause.“Didnt I ever tell you that you must not get gel on the bottoms of patent leather shoes?”Father confronted Morty in a whisper.There is one thing about MortyHE ALWAYS TELLS THE TRUTH.“Yes,you mentioned it,but I wanted to see what would happen.”Making a fast decision to save the moment,Father informed Morty in a firm but whispered voice,“Your decision has earned you the new role of escort.”Morty stepped into the aisle and allowed a sister to take hold of each arm,which they held tightly to keep from slipping.Father grabbed one of the flower buds and tucked it into Mortys lapel.“There will be no shenanigans,Mr.Mouse,”he said sternly.“Dont forget to smile and stand VERY STILL during the ceremony.”Morty now knew this had been a really bad idea.He could tell he had hurt his sisters feelings by causing them to slip and nearly fall.He could also tell Father was disappointed.Morty and the Fancy-Pants Wedding Level S78Patent leather is so lame,Morty thought.His dad once explained where the name“patent leather”came from.Basically it was fake leatherstuff that someone invented and protected with a patent so no one else could steal the idea.The names“not leather,”“trick leather,”“mock leather,”or“leather wanna-be”seemed better than“patent leather.”Morty reached for the petroleum gel and thought about that name,too.Why spell it“gel”and not“jell”?After all,it seemed just like Mothers famous huckleberry jelly.Maybe gel was someones made-up word to mean,“dont eat it.”Why didnt they call it“patent jelly for patent leather”?Morty puzzled.Morty thought words were interesting,but his words for the wedding were BORING and WASTE OF A PERFECTLY GOOD SATURDAY,and the words for his feelings were ANGRY and RESENTFUL.Trying to whistle like the shoe-shiners at Mousys did,Morty spread the petroleum gel on his sisters shoes for a glossy shine (you could even see your face and ears in the top of his older sisters sassy Mary Jane high heels).He rubbed the greasy,slimy gel into the shoes while his mind thought about tasty huckleberry jelly and how it slides off onto your plate when you try to spread it on warm pancakes.Then Morty had a very mischievous idea.If I spread gel all over the soles of my sisters shoes,they will slip and slide,Morty thought.It would be so fun to get Ben and Fred so we could all put gel on the bottom of our shoes and pretend to ice skate on Mothers kitchen f
