🎨 How to color it

Give the cactus a soft spring green, the big flower butter yellow petals with an orange center, the pebbles sandy tan, and the striped pot warm terra-cotta. Use chunky crayons to fill the cactus body, pot bands, and flower petals; staying inside every tiny spine line is not important. Try making the flower the brightest part, as if it saved a little sunrise on top.

Every day, Tula caught one warm sun-glow on her top flower. “One little light,” she whispered. The shelf smelled dusty and dry, and the pebbles went click-click when the pot shook.

Until one day, gray clouds covered the window. Because of that, the pebble bed looked cold. Because of that, a tiny beetle curled under a stone and shivered.

Tula tipped her flower. Soft gold slipped down—shhh—over the pebbles. The beetle never saw who shared it. Tula smiled in the quiet. Can you find the little saved sunrise on top?
