Maya’s teacher asks her to come to the front of the class and read a story aloud.

Maya feels her heart beat fast. Her hands feel a little shaky.

Everyone is looking at her… and she feels nervous.

What if she makes a mistake?

Maya takes a deep breath and begins to read.

At first, her voice is quiet.
