The first pages

Diwali was coming to Dev's home in Brampton. Clay diyas lined the windowsill, and the whole house smelled of sweets cooking in the kitchen.

Dev wanted to give small gifts to his family. He had ten dollars saved in his money pouch. "Is that enough for everyone?" he wondered.

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.
