Nola loves her scribbles. They go with her wherever she goes. But she can't seem to share her scribbles with others - no one seems to understand the imaginative world she's created for herself. Frustrated and uninspired, Nola draws a blank. A big, boring blank. But when Nola falls deep into a creative slump, she discovers she's not alone. If she can find the courage to share her scribbled ideas again, she may just inspire others to think outside the box and give their ideas a try too. With playful illustrations, this imaginative tale shows readers of all ages the power in persevering to create and embrace unique expression.

In this ode to originality and creativity, a little girl loves to draw, but struggles when no one understands her unique doodles.
