A Nudge Forward
My paws gave a sudden twitch. Hey, I can move! Sitting in line with my two pals on the smooth blue cloth, I leaned my head forward. Right in front of us was a white wrapped parcel with two pencils tucked into its paper pocket. I stretched out one paw and gave the nearest pencil a gentle tap. It rolled a tiny bit across the slick paper. It actually moved! My legs work, my paws work. I pulled back and sat up straight, ready for whatever comes next.
