With tape on his tires and paint still smelling sweet, Rory rolled to the meadow lane to try the game he had made: Road-Ribbon! He had drawn a twisty path with chalk and flower petals. “Zoom, curve, guess!” he beeped, and his little engine went brrr-brrr-brrr past the daisies.
Each turn had a clue: a pink petal meant wiggle, a pebble meant slow, and a leaf meant cheer. Then the sun slipped behind a cloud. Surprise! The tree shadows stretched across his chalk road like brand-new ribbons, making extra turns he had not drawn.
Rory puffed his shiny hood with pride. His game was bigger than his own hands now: chalk, petals, sun, and trees all played along. Next time you spot those sparkling headlights, can you trace the shadow-ribbon road Rory made?
