A piece of fudge.
A tube of red lipstick.
A map of Syria.
A pin.
A paintbrush.
These are just a few of the things that Nadia mysteriously finds in her pockets. It’s a strange, but lovely very short story and you have to read it, even if only to discover the the thing that Nadia finds in her pocket at the end of the story. Don’t cheat - you have to read the whole thing and it will take you ten minutes or so and take you to the beauty of this last thing.
Thanks to Cheri, Sara, Kevin, Sandy, Laysee, Debbie, Cecily and Bianca who discovered this before me and shared their wonderful thoughts.
