Robbie: A newspaper reporter?
Susan: Yes, it’s about my program to give toys to children in hospitals. Come on, Robbie. Hurry up, please!

INTRODUCTION TO ACT II

This time on TUNING IN THE U.S.A., Susan and Robbie Stewart are meeting for lunch. They meet at a restaurant that serves food to people in a hurry--- a fast-food restaurant. Susan is excited. Her program to give toys to children in hospital is success. And one reason for that success is a newspaper story about her idea. Some young readers read the story and sent Susan a letter. And Susan wants Robbie to read it.
