  43. Tanja,aged 14 I drew a bear standing on two legs and playing with a ball. He throws the ball over a very low tree, low as he himself. But that tree in fact is not small, but he is very big, the biggest bear alive. Lonely, without company, he goes to take his ball that he made in order to be big enough for him. The bear, a dangerous animal, and in addition to that if he is the biggest in the world, cannot make friends as some other kinds of animals. He remains alone with his ball.
