In fact as the week wears on, Jack finds something every day to distract him from having to learn his spelling words – playing soccer, playing with Scraps, building a pirate ship … anything is better than thinking about his spelling test. But on the night before his test, Jack remembers his words and he begins to worry. He worries so much that worry monsters visit him in his bed. He worries so much that he feels sick and snaps at his friend Billie on the way to school. Jack worries so much that his teacher sends him home for the day.
