BENEATH THE SURFACE
Do you remember how hard it was to be small when you were a child? For our young heroes it turns into a nightmare so frightening that they get transported to a world of Marshmallow, Sugar and Worcestershire Sauce monsters. Some children freeze, some fly, some shield, while others want explore the danger. Their instinct forces them to make a quick judgement, but could it be that the monsters aren't really scary at all?
“I’m not invisible,
I’m not Small
in my class I’m the tallest of all
I’m not invisible,
I’m not Small
in my class I’m the tallest of all ”
(Beneath the Surface, 2023)
