Biggy her brother got Sockie her present's, the presents were all beautiful clothes except one present, this present had a note inside . It said "you and your brother and sister's can go to a cooking class and cook dinner and dessert for your family at 3pm." Four hours later they all drove to the centre where the cooking class was been held. Sockie jumped out of the car with excitement and ran inside. The teacher of the class said welcome and gave the four of them aprons and a big white hat. They all made pizza for dinner, this was Sockie's favourite food.
