A

Mr. James forgot to kiss Mrs. James before he left the house this morning. As a result, and because it’s raining, Mrs. James is in a very bad mood. She picks on Jonathan, who picks on Sally, who picks on Marjorie, who picks on Eddie, who picks on the dog, who is only thinking about playing! Fortunately, his good mood is as contagious as irritability can be.
