When spring came to the city of Cleveland, Ohio, it did not change Gates Avenue. The people who lived on the pretty streets near Gates Avenue were making gardens, painting their houses and getting their lawn mowers ready for the summer. But Gates Avenue continued to look dirty and ugly.
Gates Avenue was a short street. But it seemed long because it was so ugly. It had no pavement and no streetlight. The railway at one end of Gates Avenue added noise and dirt.
Most of the little girls in the school near Gates Avenue wore pretty new clothes that spring. But the little girl from Gates Avenue wore the same dirty dress that she had worn all winter.
Her teacher sighed. The little girl was so nice!She always worked hard in school;she was always polite and friendly. But her face was dirty and her hair was untidy.
One day the teacher said, “Will you wash your face before you come to school tomorrow morning? Please do that for me.” The teacher could see that girl was pretty under the dirt.
The next morning the child's pretty face had been washed. Her hair was clean and tidy, too. Before the little girl went home that afternoon, the teacher said,“Now, dear, please ask your mother to wash your dress.”
But the little girl continued to wear the dirty dress. “Her mother is probably not interested in her,”the teacher thought. So she bought a bright blue dress and gave it to the little girl. The child took the present and hurried home as fast as she could.
The next morning she came to school in the new blue dress, and she was clean and tidy. She told the teacher, “My mother was surprised when she saw me this morning in my new dress. My father wasn't at home;he had gone to work. But he will see me at supper this evening.”

When her father saw her in the new blue dress, he was surprised to find that he had a pretty little girl. When the family sat down to eat supper, he was even more surprised to find a cloth on the table. The family had never used a tablecloth before. “What is the cloth for?” he asked. “We're going to be more tidy here,” his wife said. “It isn't nice to have a house that dirty and untidy when our daughter is so clean.”
After supper the mother started to clean the floors. Her husband watched for a little while without saying anything. Then he went outside into the backyard and began to repair the fence and started digging for a garden. During the next week, the man who lived in the next house watched what the little girl's family was doing. Then he started to paint his house for the first time in ten years. A few days later almost all the families followed suit. A few months later Gates Avenue looked like a different street. People who knew about the changes called it the “Gates Avenue Cleanup.” Who knows what miracles may happen when a teacher gives a little girl a new blue dress?
