Josefina - chapter 3

 In this chapter, Josefina deals with the stubborn and mean goat Florecita. She learns how to handle the animal. She was so angry she forgot to be afraid of Florecita. She prepared a gift for her aunt Tia Dolores. One by one, she picked all the freshest and brightest-colored flowers from her mom’s garden  in the back courtyard. She put them in the water jar. She wanted the beautiful flowers to be a surprise for Tia Dolores and everyone. The goat Florecita had ruined everything. The goat ate the flower and destroyed Mama’s garden.
