They just called her "the Girl Who Never Makes Mistakes," because for as long as anyone could remember, she never did.
They asked if she forgot to do her math homework. Nope.
"What about tonight's talent show?" they asked. "I'm ready!" said Beatrice with a smile. After all, her juggling act had won three years in a row.
