Once upon a time, there was a picture on the wall who loved to watch TV. One day, while watching TV on the sofa, the picture noticed the lamp was feeling left out because it wasn't in the picture. So, the picture suggested they switch places and the lamp could be in the picture for a change. The lamp agreed and the picture took its place by the window.

As the lamp enjoyed being in the picture, the armchair, chair, and table started to feel left out too. They wanted to be in the picture as well. So, they all gathered around the lamp and took a group picture. But, the carpet was feeling left out and wanted to join in too.

The carpet stretched itself out so that it covered the entire floor and said, "Take a picture of us all together!" And so, the picture on the wall took a photo of the lamp, armchair, chair, table, and carpet all together on the carpet, with the window in the background.

From then on, they all lived happily in the picture, watching TV and enjoying each other's company. The end.

Reflections

• What was the picture's idea to include everyone in the photo?
• How did the lamp feel about being in the picture for the first time?
• Why did the armchair, chair, and table want to be in the picture too?
• How did the carpet become part of the group photo?
• How do you think the picture, lamp and the others felt after they were all in the picture together?
