Maya dumped the box. A mountain of bright blocks tumbled onto the rug.
She climbed inside her tower. It wobbled dangerously high against the sofa.
A red block slipped. Crash! The whole castle fell down.
Her face fell flat. She stared at the scattered pieces on the floor.
She picked up two blocks. Quietly, she pushed them into an empty space.
'Oops,' she whispered softly. One step closer to starting again.
Maya sat back in the middle. The new structure was bigger than before.
She hummed happily while tracing the smooth wood grain. It felt good.
