Down the supermarket isles, a little boy with a dirty red towel wrapped around his neck, pushes a cart full of torn pages of food ads like a child with a destiny. Traveling faster than necessary, he rolls down this way and that way, barely avoiding shoppers and food shelves as he laughs gleefully. Towards the ice cream isle, he paused to check out the sign with the singing teddy bear, taste samples of chocolate chip mint ice cream and mini hotdogs. Then he went on his way, turning just in time to miss the cart heading his direction, towards the back of the market. After going through the last isle, he turn around to see the mess that he had left behind, a perfect smile on his lips. But he soon realize he was only dreaming, still inside the cart while his mother keeps telling him to sit back down.

Fun! It makes me wonder what a supermarket must be like for a child - such sensory overload!
well i guess now i know what kids day dream about.. this was so cute,, and what a clever point of view!!!!
Great fun. You've made me remember what it was like to go grocery shopping with my mother. I always made her a nervous wreck. I loved to poke the hamburger with my fingers among other things. Wonderful job with this one, Lissa. Have a nice day.
