Fred escapes the empty drawer...

With his new found sense of hope, Fred decided he wanted to escape his empty drawer and see what else was out there in the world.

So he poked his head out of the top of the drawer for a look.

Below was a partly open drawer full of bright colours.

"What's that?" thought Fred. "Right," he said "I'll just have to climb down and find out. Here I go!"

Fred gingerly climbed down and fell softly into the brightly filled drawer.

"It's all fabric!" Fred exclaimed. "How nice and soft it is," he thought, "I could sit here all day."

Sitting among the scraps of unused fabric stuffed into an old drawer, Fred realised how nice it was just to belong somewhere, even if the fabric wasn't going to talk back to him, at least he wasn't the only useless thing sitting in the drawer.
