She records her height daily to measure how fast she grows, but her mother assures her she will grow as fast as Mrs. Springman''s roses. Jean Ellen can''t wait to see the roses, but Mrs. Springman who is very kind, tells her that the roses are yet to bloom.

Despite her many questions, her father is very patient and explains the phenomenon to her. Jean Ellen also enjoys other activities such as gardening, playing with her sister, and going to baseball games.
