Excerpt

Ah-choo! That was a big one. Maybe the biggest sneeze Steve had ever had. If sneezes were animals then this was the blue whale of sneezes. Except it didn t have like fins or a blowhole or a tongue the size of an elephant. It was just a sneeze. You get what I m saying Steve slowly opened one eye and then the other. A cool breeze brushed past his face as he looked out to the horizon and saw something very strange. The mountains in the distance ended all of a sudden, like they had been chopped in half by a mountain-sized knife. Steve could see underground even! Far away lava flowed in these giant empty pits in the ground and Steve could see caves deep beneath the earth and in the bellies of the chopped in half mountains. Steve blinked, unable to believe his eyes. And when he opened them again, everything looked normal. It was almost as if he d caught the world with its pants down and when the world noticed he was looking, it fixed everything really fast. The world must have been very embarrassed. Did I imagine it? Steve asked no one in particular. No one in particular answered. Instead of giant pits and cut-in-half mountains, there were cheery fields around Steve now. There were mysterious forests to his left and soaring mountains to his right. Hello world, Steve said. Sorry about surprising you. Wind blew through the trees and the sun shone brightly. Steve was pretty sure that was the world saying hello back. Hello trees and hello grass. Hello water and hello hills. Steve looked down at a block of dirt that was sticking out of the ground near his feet. Hello block, he said. The block of dirt didn t say anything. You re shy, that s okay, said Steve. He punched at the block of dirt, digging it out of the ground. Come with me block, he said. Blocky that s what I ll call you. He put the block lovingly in his backpack and as he did, he noticed there was something else already inside the very empty pack: a picture. A picture of a girl. Who was she?
