Things couldn't get any worse for poor Polly. It's her ninth birthday, and she's stricken with the chicken pox and quarantined for a week. Why did she have to get the chicken pox now instead of next week? Of course her birthday party has to be canceled. Will things turn around for Polly or will this really be her worst birthday ever?
