Chapter 15

The cardboard placard survived accidentally.

Arthur found it behind the stage.

“Zero Dollar Charity Lot.”

He asked what to do.

“Throw it away.”

Daisy overheard.

“No.”

I looked at her.

“Why?”

“Need cardboard.”

She turned it over.

Drew a horse on the blank side.

Then used it as part of a school project.

Perfect.

I never told her she had reclaimed anything.

Children do not need adults turning every ordinary act into therapy.

Sometimes cardboard becomes cardboard again.
