By morning Cliff had finished work on Guardian and triumphantly he switched him back on.

The family was happy to have Guardian around again, because they were thinking of extending the house once more.

They discussed their plans with Guardian and got to work.

Before too long a whole second floor had been added to the Small house!

It wasn’t so small any more.

Cliff had a new hangout.

And a bedroom to himself at last!

That night a storm swept over the area… setting fire to the tree again.

Was this a sign?
