This is a story of Lexi, a feisty, colourful little llama (baby cria) and her mama. It includes many other llamas, and Farmer Collins, the owner of the Collins Family Llama Farm, a place where people came to visit and pet the llamas and sometimes paint or draw them. Lexi saw this and decided that she wanted to paint.
"Llamas can't paint," she was told many times.
Mama loved her little Lexi, but Lexi was determined to paint. Mama tried to be patient, but everyone knows llamas can't paint.
Lexi was very determined, and over and over said, "I want to paint, Mama." Over and over she was told that, "Llamas CANNOT paint!" Did Lexi ever get to follow her dream of painting? Did Lexi actually get to paint?
Have you ever seen a llama that could paint? I know that you will have to read this story to find out if Lexi actually got to follow her passion to paint. What a silly concept that llamas can paint . . . or is it?
Lexi is excited for you to find out!
