Question

I was at the costume store with my Mom and my sister Megan，who was only 6months old．I was looking at the pictures in the pattern book，trying to decide what to be for Halloween．I wanted to be a princess，but I didn't get a chance to ask Mom to help me find that page．She was busy taking care of baby Megan．
All the women bent over Megan's carrier．Mom wasn't even looking at me．Megan started to cry．Mom asked if I had decided yet．I looked down at the book and saw a picture of a kid in a banana costume．I pointed at it although I didn't want to be a banana．
Mom bought the banana pattern for me．I knew I had made a mistake．Everyone would laugh at me，a big banana in yellow tights（紧身衣）．
"You'll be different，"Mom says．"It'll be great．"
I pulled on the tights．When we walked into the party，everyone smiled at cute baby Megan．
I sighed．Then I wandered around the party．
"Oh!You look so cute，"a woman said．
"I'm a banana，"I told her．
I walked around the party．People smiled when they saw my costume．Many of them told me I was cute．
I smiled．I knew I looked funny．And everyone was looking at me．The clowns，the pop stars and the grown-ups．They were all looking at me．
They thought I was cute and funny，in a good way．And guess what？I was the only banana at the party，and there were three princesses!
Later Mom waved me over to where she was sitting against the wall．She looked tired．A thin blanket covered Megan．Mom pulled me into her lap．"Megan's finally asleep，and I'm not going to let you go．You are the most precious，most attractive little banana!"
That Mom．She was funny．
So，being a banana was pretty good，because I was different．
