Ella knew that her mother would not understand. She would come up with some motherly words of wisdom like "Ella, we don't bring stray mammoth's home with us, do we dear?" or "How would you feel if you were a mammoth; would you want to be trapped inside or allowed to roam free?" She said the very same thing last week when Ella brought home a lizard she found on her way home from school. But this was different. How could she possibly turn Rocky away? He was so fuzzy and cute. It's not every day a kid finds an actual mammoth. Especially since they are supposed to be prehistoric or something. Now... if she could just fit him in her closet.

The sketch looks lovely!
Can't wait to see the finished version. Although this is in part because as a child, I would have loved to have found a mammoth to bring home.
Michelle, Oh, your work is truly wonderful! I just love your expressions! And I have a niece named Ella who would definitely bring home a stray woolly mammoth so that created a huge grin. And I'm with Sam, can't wait to see the finished version, and story... Thank you!!
Hey Michelle! Love Ella and the wooly mammoth (that followed her home) :o) Great sketch... I hope you find time to color it... I’d love to see it!
Very nice Sketch, Michelle!
I can imagin she wants the cute mammoth as a pet.
