Being Creative is Such Hard Work

I have posted before that Max likes to create books. Sometimes, he makes up stories (like The Two Lobsters, still my favorite), and sometimes he just paraphrases movies that he has seen (Tonight it was Wall-E), but he will illustrate them and tells us what he wants them to say and we write the words. Then, I bind them with a hole punch and yarn. This evening, he was working on a long one and sent me away to finish his illustrations, but was very clear that he wanted the story "stringed" when he got up. However, it didn't get finished. When I went in to check on him, this is what I found. The book will have to wait for another day.
