When aliens Zimothy and Meep discover a mysterious Earth artefact called a ‘crayon,’ they’re amazed by its technological capabilities — it can make thought appear on paper!
What begins as a quick classroom raid soon spirals into an intergalactic celebration of cosmic creativity.
From the brilliantly imaginative Anna McGregor, creator of Spiro, Who’s Afraid of the Light? and Anemone is Not the Enemy, comes a delightfully funny story that celebrates the humble crayon and the universal joy of making art. With McGregor’s signature wit and charming illustrations, this cosmic tale reminds us that creativity knows no boundaries — whether you’re human or alien, the magic of drawing connects us all.
