<p><em><strong>The Other Hand </strong></em>Excerpt:</p>
<blockquote><p>It was a regular Saturday on Ahway Island, right around lunchtime. In the town, in a little house, Lisa munched on her sandwich thoughtfully. Last night at dinner, Lisa listened to her parents and grandparents talking. Her grandmother mentioned that it is good for your brain to do activities with your non-dominant hand.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>At the time, it sounded interesting, and she wanted to try it. But she didn’t quite understand what it meant to “do things with your non-dominant hand.”</p></blockquote>
