Story sample

Rafi had made a pumpkin lantern from orange paper, a grown-up’s careful cutting, and one little battery light. He set it on the porch step for the neighborhood’s costume walk.

“It needs a face,” said Midge.

Rafi gave it two round eyes and a crooked grin. The lantern glowed. Its shadow stretched across the fence.

“That is a very long smile,” he said.
