A parade for a little screw
Rusty found a loose screw beneath the swing. He tightened it in a moment. “All done,” he said, but the children wanted to thank him. One brought a paper flag. Another made a drum from an empty tin.
Soon a very small parade marched around the swing. Rusty waved, a little embarrassed, until he saw why they were so happy. The swing was safe again, and everyone could take a turn. He joined the line. When his turn came, he swung so high that the paper flag looked like a tiny star below him.
