The first pages

Sam was building a tower of flower pots in the garden. It was wobbly, but it was his.

His cousin Jade walked by. That looks dumb, she said, without even thinking. The tower fell over. So did Sam's smile.

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