A spare, powerful story about taking space to process difficult feelingsAfter something bad happens, a boy feels sad and gray. So he picks up a shovel and starts digging a tunnel from his room, deep down and into the backyard. Mom and Aunt Cheryl try to talk about it, but he feels like running away.
