"Good idea, but Mom and Dad won't like us being so far away from the house," I said.

The day was going great, and we were making a lot of money. We got excited thinking about what we were going to buy with the money we were making.
Then something happened, just as we were about to go home for the day.
"Give me all your money, little girl," said a scary voice.
I looked up and saw two men standing over me with knives in their hands. I was very scared so I just handed them the money. My brother saw them and started to yell, but they just turned and ran away.
My brother and I were both very upset. We ran home and told our parents, and they called the police. We waited for them to come and, when they did, they asked us a lot of questions. It all happened so fast that neither of us knew what the robbers looked like.
"I am sorry, kids. I don't think we have much chance of finding your money. The men are probably a long way away by now. Next time, I want you to be more careful. I think it would be better for you to keep your lemonade stand in front of the house, okay?" said one of the policemen.
