A Rolled-Up Surprise
A swift bounce carried me all the way back home from the town square, sneezing the last specks of flour off my nose! Right on the dark wooden coffee table sat a glossy, colorful magazine propped up against a ceramic bowl. Its pages were curled open into a tempting archway, and naturally, I couldn't just stare at it! I gathered my springy paws and launched straight through the glossy paper tunnel! Swish-flutter! The slick curved pages buckled under my furry chest, flipping rapidly and slapping against the wooden tabletop with a crisp, drumroll rattle. I slid out the far side on my tummy, bumping gently into the bowl with a triumphant chuckle!
