Style | One act comedy play for kids. Single set. (And aside from the set, only one prop, and that's a piece of paper.) |

Only Big Drip and the Raindrops stand in Incey's way. Meanwhile, the weeds and flowers argue and the sun has a few questions for a knowledgeable bookworm. It's amazing what you learn living on a compost heap. |
