Chapter 2: A Canvas of Chaos

Lulu carried paints, brushes, paper, and her favorite palette out to the living room. Ollie, her energetic brother, bounced around excitedly, accidentally knocking a stack of paint tubes onto the floor. Violet, always eager to help, giggled and began collecting them, while Rosie watched nervously, shaking her head.

"This looks like trouble," Rosie warned.

"Nonsense!" Lulu said cheerfully. She unfolded a huge sheet of paper, covering the entire table. With everything ready, Lulu stood back, took a deep breath, and prepared to paint her masterpiece.

"Can I paint too?" Ollie asked, bouncing up and down.

"Maybe later," Lulu said, carefully selecting a brush.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Rosie asked again, raising an eyebrow.

"It's the best idea!" Lulu replied confidently. Violet smiled, curious to see what Lulu would create. Sir Waggleton sat patiently, tail gently wagging, hoping there might be a treat in it for him.
