The Boy, the Troll & the Chalk

Anne Booth

Everyone stays away from a fierce troll’s cave at the edge of a playground, except for one boy. He brings chalk to the cave and begins a drawing, leaving the chalk behind. Over several days, the boy and troll complete each other’s pictures, eventually drawing portraits of themselves holding hands. Their shared art reveals that the feared troll is another boy, and other children join them outside the cave.
