Into the uncut grass

 
Begins with a young child's declaration of independence - he refuses to make his bed in the morning (to him, messy sheets are sculptural works of unconscious art - plus the bed wants to breathe - and why make up something that clearly doesn't want to be made and will only have to be remade tomorrow?). His protest-shared with his grizzled, world-weary stuffed bear Walter - quickly escalates and the two decide to run away to the furthest point on their map - the shady terra incognita of the uncut grass just beyond their family's small herb garden. Once they cross the threshold of the garden's fence-guarded by a gnomic gnome - they soon find themselves in a fantastical world of lost objects - old boots on a journey, a monster made of leaves, and a village of ecstatic coins - who teach him lessons about resolving conflicts and bridging difference.
