Description: Seven figures are arranged across the page, with their arms linked together. The tallest figures-one male and one female-are in the center. The rest of the figures are arranged on either side of these two, with the shortest figures at the outside of the group. All of them are smiling. Their clothes are cut from brightly colored paper. One of the figures has the number, five, on his shirt. The background is drawn with crayons. A yellow sun and white clouds float across the bright blue sky.
