Olivia’s father builds houses for a living. Olivia likes to help him build the

her dad asks her to keep an eye on the model so it doesn’t get broken. No matter how hard Olivia tries to
protect the model, it gets broken when her dog and brother bump it. Olivia knows that her dad is bringing
home a client to see the model, so she decides to remake the model in the
