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
Shawn promises to guard Val’s favorite puddle. Then the sun shrinks it, a bird sips it, and his own tail spills the rest.
A brave choice
He could blame the sun or the bird. Instead he tells Val the whole truth: “I bumped the edge. I am sorry.”
A happy turn
Together they build a new puddle, and Shawn stays until the first star, just as he promised.
