A little preview
Behind Alex’s garden hedge sat a small wooden clubhouse with three bright doors—red, blue, and green. Each door had a tiny window and a different brass knob. Alex loved the clubhouse because it smelled of lemon soap and sun-warmed wood. Today, three friends arrived with different ideas: Mara wanted to play tea party, Ben wanted building blocks scattered everywhere, and Lila hoped for a quiet reading nook. The three doors made each idea feel like it belonged to separate rooms.
