Bridge to Terabithia Chapter 2.

 Bridge to Terabithia.

Jess's first impression of Lessie Burke , he didn't know if she was a boy or a girl. When she said"There is no one around for miles we might at least be friends". Some how he knew she was a girl. Jess was not really interested so he bluntly said "I have work to do". He returned with a milk pale to milk the cow but when he came back she was not there. Jess did not really like her much. So it didn't worry him.

He never saw her till the first day of school (which was the race day). I think Jess's opinion on her will change on the running race day, because Jess did not know how fast she is. Jess might accept and be friends with Lessie Burke.

Catherine McAuley.
