Polly y Fatima van. Ellas van al mercado. El mercado es secreto. Es colorido y ruidoso. La gente vende cosas. Venden arte y joyas. Venden ollas y alfombras. El aire huele bien. Huele a especias. Fatima mira alrededor. Ella está feliz. Polly está feliz también. Un niño está allí. Él sonríe y dice, "Ven conmigo." Ellas siguen al niño. Ellas ven mucha gente. Ellas ven muchas tiendas. Ellas van a una tienda. Una mujer vieja está allí. Ella tiene muchos libros. Ella dice, "Bienvenidas, amigas." Fatima le da un mapa. La mujer lo mira. Ella dice, "Este mapa es especial." Polly dice esto a Fatima. Fatima escucha a Polly. Fatima pide más. La mujer sonríe y dice, "Luego." Polly y Fatima se van. Ellas están emocionadas y felices. Les gusta el mercado. Les gustan las historias.
