Nell tried it too. It was confusing at first, because the world kept 
spinning around her while she did it. She looked at the illustration in the 
book and saw Belle doing exactly what Nell had done, making all of the same 
mistakes. Dojo scampered down from his rock and explained how Belle could keep 
her head and body straight. Nell followed the advice as she gave it another 
try, and this time it felt better. Before her time was up, she was doing 
perfect somersaults all over the playground. When she went back to the 
apartment, Mom wouldn't let her in at first, so she did somersaults up and down 
the hall for a while. Finally Mom let her in, and when she saw that Nell had 
gotten sand in her hair and shoes down at the playground, she gave her a 
spanking and sent her to bed without any food.
