On a Sunday walk through the park, five-year-old Clara notices the houses on the other side of the fence-tall, grand, and impossibly out of reach. Her questions are precise, unflinching, and unconditioned: Why don't we have a house like that? How do people get so much? Are some people worth more than others? As Daniel, her father, tries to answer, they trace the invisible lines of wealth, opportunity, and social structure that shape their world.
A quiet, tender story about curiosity, fairness, and the questions children ask before the world teaches them to stop.
