The White Book
Roller in hand, a boy starts to paint a blank wall. First it’s a plain coat of pink. Then six birds emerge, perched on a branch. Wait, they were there a minute ago! Then he tries the blue paint, and it happens again: fourteen fish swimming in formation, until green paint reveals a giant dinosaur with big teeth and a mind of its own.
P. Zonka Lays An Egg

To everyone’s delight, she produces a wondrous egg that contains all the colors and designs that she has stored in her creative imagination.
