How the story goes
One small trouble. Three turns.
A peek for grown-ups, so you know where the story is headed before you turn the first page.
A small trouble
A muddy ditch cuts across the path to Tiptop Hill, and Ali wants to jump it. Austin says, “Wait.”
A brave choice
His logs roll and his first knot pops open, so Austin practices around a stump until his fifth knot stays snug.
A happy turn
He crosses slowly by himself first. The bridge holds, and they mark the safe middle with bright leaves for smaller feet.
