Imagine an ACTUAL dragon going to teach the Bailey School Kids' art class and they go "No, I don't think he's a dragon. If he were a human man with spiky hair and sunglasses, MAYBE. But I don't see how this reptilian creature with wings and a tail teaching our art class could POSSIBLY be a dragon"

I want it to be known that I can in fact draw ladies. I just have to make it overly complicated for myself.

Was there anyone else who felt attacked when watching Matilda the musical? Like reading to escape childhood trauma, mostly feeling alone and telling yourself stories to comfort yourself from torment?
The scene when Miss Honey's father vowed to protect her while Matilda cried and pretended she was being comforted made me ugly cry.

Secret gardens in my mind people need a key to get to the only one is mine??? I read about it in a book when I was a precocious child???
girl was that book The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett??? In which precocious 10yo orphaned Mary Lennox aka Mary Mary Quite Contrary is sent to a relative’s stuffy old estate on the English moors?? She really hates it there and mopes around sour and miserable until she hears of a secret garden locked up for a decade, and occupies herself with finding it?? Until finally she finds the key and then the hidden door and then spends all her time there scared of getting caught but excited to learn all the plants and bring them back to life?? She learns all about joy and friendship and magic???
My childhood obsession?? The first hardback I ever owned?? flocked in maroon with gold-edged pages and a bookmark ribbon?? gifted to me by my parents and endlessly reread and cherished?? One of my favorite books of all time???
(AND we get a Peter Pan track?? Another of my childhood favorites and favorite stories of all time??? girl help)
