Summarize the paragraph "Myra put the brooch in her pocket. She said, "I can wear it on my good dress. My good dress is blue." I knew it would be. Myra wore out her good dresses at school. Even in midwinter among the plaid wool skirts and serge tunics, she glimmered sadly in sky-blue taffeta, in dusty turquoise crepe, a grown woman's dress made over, weighted by a big bow at the v of the neck and folding empty over Myra's narrow chest. And I was glad she had not put it on. If someone asked her where she got it, and she told them, what would I say?"
