When Lucy Spratch grew older, she discovered numerous sealed jars with small figures enclosed in them, hidden in the backyard shed. She pretended they were her friends. As she played, she discovered that instinctively she knew their names.
This is part of the series of Mrs Spratch drawings that I began a year ago. You can see the rest of the drawings here
In this drawing, Lucy Spratch is the inordinately heavy baby grown into a young child.

Sounds like a very cool story. So mysterious. I love this illustration Gabrielle.
Thank you, Jim :)
