Robert

Robert was a cheerful little character drawn in blue ink on a tiny white page. He had a neat flat-top haircut, big geometric ears, and kind rectangle eyes that seemed to notice everything. One afternoon, while resting on a dark tabletop, Robert wished he could do something special.

Then a tiny problem appeared. A soft breeze lifted the corner of the small paper, and the blue-ink lines trembled. Robert felt a wobble in his neat little world. He wanted to stay safe and still, but he also wanted to help the page feel lively again.

Just then, Robert discovered something wonderful: every line on him could tell a story. He stood up a little taller, smiled his tiny smile, and imagined the table turning into a grand stage. The X marks inside his ears looked like secret clues, and his simple shirt with the rounded collar made him look ready for an adventure.

In his big moment, Robert imagined the breeze as a friendly dance partner. The page settled, the lines felt steady, and Robert’s whole drawing seemed to glow with courage.

Robert learned that even a small picture can be full of bravery, imagination, and joy.
