"The Golden Orb" re-told by Liam Williams

Afterword: By Andrea Williams
We just returned from a family trip to New York City.  On our first night in the city we invited our friend William back to our hotel room and in order to get the kids to go to sleep we turned down the lights and began to tell a progressive story.  The story traced the way of Liam and Luke, two brothers who found a secret passage/portal into the underground of NYC via a small closet in the hotel corridor.  From there the boys went on an adventure, first finding a shining golden orb and then with the task of placing it in the Statue of Liberty's unlit torch as they passed through caves and over water.  It was a fun night and obviously the story made an impression on Liam, enough for him to re-write his own version.
