I don't know how many times I read Alfie Gets in First as a child but I can still hear the drip drip drip and almost probably recite most of it🤣 Thank you for giving me some of my fondest childhood reading memories 📚

Two brown eyes,
One pink nose,
Ten busy fingers,
Ten pink toes,
Colour in her brown curls,
Colour in her clothes,
Colour in a big smile,
And that's Annie Rose

In Italy they share the same VA, the great Sara Labidi, so the idea to put them together in one fanart! I think they would get along very well!
