Bunnies in My Head

This is a project celebrating the artwork of pediatric patients at M.D. Andersen Cancer Center . It is a collaboration of volunteers, and staff members at the Children's Art Project.

A little girl notes she has bunnies in her head, white, silent, big as mountains, in search of carrots as big as trees. She likes to paint many trees of all shapes and purposes, such cold trees in the snow, and fancy Christmas trees, and trees that are bigger than she is.

Using her inspiration, brush and crayons, she can lead those who are willing to another world, very much different from that which we live in. It is a world far, far away, inside her head. She notes that there are furry things that roan and wear socks. Using examples of what she can draw and show more the inspirations that come out of her imagination, she paints her black cat, butterflies, fuzzy moths that go splat on her sweater into swiss cheese.

She dreams of flowers, and colors, lots of colors and shapes that bump each other. Her house is painted in her mind as well, and there is a circus with elephants, da dancing polar bear and lots of carnival rides -- all of this is painted as it is stored in her head.

When her head feels jumbled, she can express herself, not with words, but with her paintbrush of magic. When she becomes scared, she thinks of her crayons, and she can fly away to the stars.

Perhaps tomorrow is a word of hope. show less

Bunnies in my Head is an amazing book that Everyone should own and share with their kids and families!

Both the artwork and the artists are as inspiring as the words!
