A BOY AND HIS ANT
From a Rusty Pickle spotlight for AMM.

This is a little children's story I wrote using David's photos. David's been really into ants lately so I wanted to commemorate that. I also painted the papers as if a kid drew on them with crayons. The story goes like this:

There once was a little boy named David who was friends with an ant. They did everything together. They went everywhere together. They were friends. But one day, the little boy lost his ant. He looked everywhere. Desperate, he went to the chicken and asked if she'd seen his friend. He then went to talk to Mrs. Pig but she hadn't seen David's ant either. He checked every tree and talked to the other ants he saw along the way. He looked for hours and hours. He walked all over, searching. He turned every stone he could find to see if his friend was stuck or playing hide-and-seek. He walked up the stairs to the house where they were staying to check if he took a nap. But the ant was nowhere. He wasn't sleeping or hiding. David was tired. Just when he was about to give up, he decided to check one more place and there he was! He greeted his friend. And finally the boy and his ant were united once again. David was really happy.
