WoW – Tiny as Your Thumb

Feb 29, 2012 | Short Stories

It’s write on Wednesday again. This weeks prompt is to imagine you are as tiny as your thumb. You can read the whole prompt here.

I started thinking about this and the idea for a children’s story came to mind… I don’t know if this will be the start of my March picture book for 12×12 in 12 or not, but I hope you like it…

As always, comments & suggestions are welcome.

 

If I was as tiny as your thumb, I could hide in the smallest of places.

If I was as big as a mountain, you could see me from far away.

If I was as long as a river, I could go across the countryside and find some interesting places.

If I was as wide as the ocean, you could find me wherever you go.

If I was as bright as your eyes, you could see me in the dark.
