Another suggested a police officer, because the police   23  and care for people. Still    24  guessed it was the hand of God, for God feeds us. And so the    25  went on until the teacher almost forgot the young artist himself.

She remembered the times she had taken his hand and   28    with him here or there, as she had with the other students. She often said, “   29  my hand, Jack. We’ll go outside.” Or, “Let me show you how to use your pencil.” Jack was most thankful for his  ___30____ hand.
