That Thing You Drew

A seven-year old girl with a hearing impediment turns the sound down on her hearing aid to keep the disruptive sounds of the adult world at a safe, muted distance. When she comes across a number of strange thingies drawn on the walls of a London estate, she is transfixed and continues to draw thingy after thingy into her school exercise book. It takes a young admirer to put her straight.
