My easel broke! Can you buy me a new one?

How did that happen?

Paolo with a thought bubble of him tripping on his easel and breaking it while their parrot, Kiwi, flies away

Um …

Mamãe talking to Paolo

You can help us pay for a new one.

But I don’t have any money!

Papai talking to Paolo

Then this will be a good time to learn how to earn and save money.

Hmm …

Paolo doing various chores, putting his money in a jar, and buying a new easel

Later …

Paolo happily painting on his new easel

It feels good to work hard for something important to me!
