Readers can be encouraged to either begin or continue on a journey of creativity. Children reading this may see it as themselves attempting to be creative and will walk away with the message that they can be creative and artsy whether or not their products are perfect. The text serves as either a mirror or a door. Just as he is about to give up drawing altogether, his sister praises his drawings letting Ramon know that it’s ok if they aren’t perfect but they’re close enough to be appreciated. Ramon is excited about his drawings until his big brother makes fun of them for not being high quality drawings.

The story is about Ramon, a boy that loves to draw anything at any time.
