By JANINE SCOTT
Rosie Lockett was rocket crazy. She had rockets on her dresses, rockets on her jeans, rockets on her socks. She read about rockets, she wrote about rockets, she talked about nothing else but rockets.
Then, one day, her parents cried out, "Rosie Lockett, that's enough about rockets!"
Rosie was silent - for about a second. Then, as quick as a rocket, she said, "Well, what else can I talk about?"
"Anything but rockets!" they said.
