Pea s ’ Grand Journey
Little Pea lives a modest, tiny life, but lacks nothing.
Here is the little house that he built himself.
And there is his tomato plant.
As for friends,
he has plenty!
Everybody loves Little Pea!
Hobbies? He has several of these too, like collecting bottle caps,
making toys,
and playing music!
His job? You might already know what it is. Little Pea draws stamps – and he loves it!
But today, it’s not going well. What’s wrong, Little Pea?
Oh! He has to create a new series of stamps, but he doesn’t know what to draw.
He has already drawn series of insects,
tomatoes,
cars,
and flowers.
Little Pea has run out of ideas. What else could he possibly draw?
Hmm. Nothing comes to mind.
He’s thinking, but he’s out of ideas. How will Little Pea find inspiration again?
End of browsing...
End of browsing...
What’s the best solution when you’re short on inspiration? A GRAND journey!
