All Kinds of Faces
Jenny, a curious six-year-old living in the suburbs of Paris, embarks on a journey to understand emotions and expressions. As she faces a series of obstacles, she learns that wisdom comes from understanding others and ourselves.
Jenny loved exploring the suburbs of Paris with her sketchbook. One day, she noticed something puzzling. Everyone around her had different faces, showing all kinds of emotions. She wondered if she could learn what each face meant. " - Why do people look so different?" Jenny asked her mom. Her mom smiled, " - Every face tells a story, Jenny. You'll see."
Jenny wanted to understand what made faces look happy or sad. She decided to draw each expression in her sketchbook. But there was a problem. Her drawings didn't look like the real faces. " - This doesn't look right," Jenny said, frustrated. " - Keep trying, Jenny," her friend Pierre encouraged.
Jenny tried asking people about their faces. " - Why are you smiling?" she asked a woman at the bakery. The woman laughed, " - Because I just had a delicious croissant!" But when Jenny asked a man why he looked angry, he just walked away. Jenny felt stuck. " - How will I ever learn?" she sighed.
Jenny felt like giving up. She sat on a bench, watching people walk by. Faces blurred together, and she couldn't tell one emotion from another. " - Maybe I'm too young to understand," Jenny thought. Her eyes filled with tears of frustration. She closed her sketchbook, feeling defeated.
Just then, an elderly man sat beside her. " - Why so glum, little artist?" he asked gently. Jenny explained her problem. The man nodded wisely. " - Understanding faces is like understanding stories. Listen and watch closely," he advised. Jenny's eyes lit up with a new idea. " - I can do that!" she exclaimed.
Jenny spent the next few days watching and listening intently. She noticed how people's voices matched their expressions. Slowly, she filled her sketchbook with faces that told stories. Her drawings were full of life and emotion. " - I did it!" Jenny cheered. Her mom and Pierre clapped proudly, " - You are wise beyond your years, Jenny."
