I first met Windy, a six-year-old girl, on the beach near where I lived. Every time when I felt unhappy, I
drove to the beach. She was building sand house or something else there. She looked up, her eyes were as blue
as the sea.
"Hello." She said. I answered, but didn"t really want to stop her."I"m building." she said again. I saw that.
"What is it?" I asked her."Oh, I don"t know. I just like the feeling of the sand."

The carpenter said,"I think I know what to do, sir, and I"ll be able to do a job that pleases you."
