The paper bridge arrival · four-question paper

This original fictional story is complete. Paper Fox arrives at a cardboard bridge while a little paper Owl waits beside the first post. Fox sees a narrow path and whispers, ‘That looks high.’ Owl sees the same path as a fine place for a tiny parade. Fox takes one careful step. ‘Tap-tap,’ go the paper feet. Fox reaches the other side and smiles. Owl has watched this one crossing from the post. Fox plans a return crossing later, but the story does not say that it happens. The illustration description shows Fox on the far side, Owl beside the near post and the empty path between them. A reader can imagine an adapted thought for Owl while keeping the supplied arrival. No real bridge height, safety rule or journey is asserted.
