Riley and Rose in the Picture — Susanna Gretz

In a quirky tale of dueling artists, Susanna Gretz humorously addresses the give-and-take of friendship — and the creative power of self-expression."Now I’m going to draw circles," says Riley."Those are bugs," says Rose."No," says Riley. "They're circles.""They’re BUGS," says Rose, "with legs and spots."It's a rainy day, and furry friends Riley and Rose are stuck inside with nothing to do but draw . . . and bicker. While Riley likes to draw circles and triangles and rectangles, Rose likes to draw flowers and tents and boats in scenes that tell a story — right on top of Riley's work! Is there room in this picture for both artists?
