Illustration: At a low table in a family living room, an adult repairs the split side of a child's stuffed rabbit. Their fingers hold the two fabric edges together while a threaded needle emerges through both, leaving a neat row of stitches behind it. Loose stuffing still peeks from the unclosed section.
