The narrator s other friends don t accept Dorothy and exclude her from their adventures, encouraging the narrator to do the same. But the narrator doesn t give into their bullying; she loves that Dorothy is different, and that s what makes Dorothy her best friend. Guided Reading Level K Lexile Level 520L"
