The Lemonade Stand
A close view of a sunny driveway in the morning. Twins of seven with light skin and chestnut hair set up a small folding table. The girl, with a ponytail and a green striped T-shirt, pours lemonade from a big glass jug. The boy, in an orange T-shirt and shorts, paints a yellow lemon on a sign. A gray cat watches from a low garden wall.
Nell and Gus are twins. On Saturday, they set up a lemonade stand at the end of their driveway.
