Age:

Three boys—Eli (about 10, fair, messy brown hair, round glasses, light blue shirt) sits at a wooden table writing gently in a notebook with a black pen; Max (9–10, olive skin, short dark hair, mischievous smile, green t‑shirt) stands slightly bent, holding a partially opened cereal bar, looking at Eli and pressing Jonas’s shoulder; Jonas (nearly 10, tan, curly hair, flour spot on a yellow t‑shirt) laughs covering his mouth while showing a small paper with a hamster drawing—they are in a sunlit school library with warm brick walls, wooden shelves of colorful books, a round light wood table scattered with papers, pencils, a steaming cup on a low shelf and a world poster on the wall, writing a calm, intimate letter of support to children in a war, small drawings and a class photo with a sleeping hamster nearby, warm gouache‑like colors, contrasting strokes and golden light suggesting hope despite the serious subject.

There are 4 children: Ruby, a 10-year-old girl with curly brown hair wearing a blue t-shirt and pink shorts, holding a notebook and pencil, looking determinedly at her friends; Anya, a 10-year-old girl with braided blonde hair in a yellow floral dress, joyfully smiling while holding a colorful poster; Lila, a 10-year-old girl with straight black hair in a green t-shirt and jeans, drawing on a large sheet of paper; and Zoe, a 10-year-old girl with red hair and glasses in a purple hoodie, looking enthusiastic while holding a pack of colored pencils. The main setting is a sunny schoolyard surrounded by tall green trees, with a majestic oak tree in the center, its branches adorned with shiny leaves. Colorful cardboard boxes filled with clothes, toys, and food are placed around the tree, and handmade posters with messages of peace and hope are hanging from the branches. The main scene shows the four children enthusiastically collaborating to organize a donation drive for families affected by the war, laughing and exchanging ideas amid their colorful posters and overflowing boxes of kindness, creating an atmosphere of solidarity and hope.
