Description: A tree covered with green leaves and flowers stands on a grassy hill in the middle of the page, touching the top edge of the picture. A rainbow that reaches from on side of the page to the other is drawn behind the tree. Three small circles are drawn on either side of the tree. The circles near the right and left edges of the page are larger than the ones nearest the trunk of the tree, so they look as though they closer to the viewer. The larger circles are brightly colored, like the rainbow. The two smallest circles near the tree trunk are completely yellow with a few black lines. A bright yellow sky, with a tiny bit of dark blue near the top, takes up much of the background. A large yellow sun, drawn with eyes, nose, and mouth smiles over the landscape. All across the bottom portion of the page, bright red, blue, yellow and purple flowers bloom on small green mounds.
