Jay loves art, so he is excited when his aunt asks him to go with her to an art sale. The room is big, and there are lots of people sitting in rows of seats. A man stands at the front of the room. He is wearing a suit, and he holds a book of art photos. Jay’s aunt explains to him how the sale works. The man will show a piece of art to the room, and then he will give a starting price. If people want to buy it, they put their hands up. This means Jay cannot stretch his arms or he might buy something by accident! Each time someone raises their hand, the price goes up. Sometimes, the final price can be thousands of dollars. Jay is excited to be at the sale, but also scared because he doesn’t want to buy anything by mistake!
There is one piece of art that Jay really likes. It is a cartoon. He knows it will be too expensive for him to buy. The price goes up and up, and the final price is ten thousand dollars. The man in the suit shouts out the final price, hits the table with a gavel, and the sale is over. But suddenly, there is a strange noise. Everyone looks up. The cartoon starts to fall down inside the frame. No one knows what is happening. Then, the noise stops. Part of the picture is torn and hanging outside the frame. Everyone is silent.
Finally, the woman who bought the cartoon stands up and says that she will still take the piece. She likes it, and she will get it repaired. Everyone in the room breathes more easily.
