This is a reading comprehension exercise. It is interesting to note that Basil and Tenzie have similar points of view. This helps the Basil family become more comfortable with Basil's uniqueness.

<h3>Who is Basil?</h3>

From the book - One Plus One Equals Blue, Basil's character is portrayed as a twelve-year-old who has a unique way of thinking and seeing the world.

He is unique and he knows it. However, to others, he seemed to be freakish. This thus creates some conflict for Basil which is resolved when he meets Tenzie an equally unique girl from school.

Answer:

Once on my birthday, me and my siblings were riding our bikes in the streets and the youngest looked at me. As she was doing so, she was coming down the sidewalk and hit the fire hydrant. Our father said she would be fine, but then he saw her kneecap, and rushed her to the hospital. When my mom called, she told me that she would need 7 stitches. As she was getting stiches, the party started, and my parents were still at Urgent Care. 2 weeks later, she got her stitches out, and her knee is now healed.
