The first pages

Kenji found an empty tissue box and a handful of rubber bands in the kitchen drawer in Toronto. "Dad, can I make something?" he asked. "Let's build a guitar," said Dad.

Kenji stretched four rubber bands around the box, right over the open hole. Dad slid a pencil under the bands at one end to lift them up.

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