In Ish, we meet Ramon, who is in many ways Vashti?s opposite: a little boy who would happily draw all the time, making pictures of anything and everything that he encounters. In Ramon?s case, the problems start when his older brother laughs at one of Ramon?s drawings, insisting that it looks nothing like what it is supposed to be. Ramon?s pride and confidence wane, and dissatisfaction sets in. It takes the wisdom of a younger sister who sees the real value of Ramon?s pictures to inspire him to pick up his coloured pencils once again.
