My son insists this robot can fly, so he can drink up there amidst the clouds… Funny, how this drawing allows for interpretation!
Thank you, and say hello to your son from us.

My six year old son is very smart. He believes this robot is trying to suck up a cloud so it can a glass of water. Maybe he’s thirsty?

Dear Elspeth, my son told me to answer like this: The robot is really flying now (not only dreaming). A magic cloud has appeared, lubricating the bolts in his knees!
You were absolutely right about “le ciel”, and of course this is a light bulb above his head which he plugs into his nose every time he awakes in the middle of the night.

Looking at the image again. Funny how the robots nose looks like a socket – and the thought bubble above his head looks like a lightbulb. Maybe he plugs his lightbulb into his nose.

Ha, thank you so much – it explains it all. I have been wondering about these letters, but now I know! My son will love your interpretation…

Ha, very cute drawing. The guitar somehow matches it. I say he is dreaming in French. The French word for ‘the’ (le) is in his thought bubble. He is thinking about le ciel (the sky) and wishing/dreaming he could fly because the other robot he loves is far away and he wants to get there without having to walk because the bolts in his knees are rusty. So in the drawing he’s sticking his arms out and flapping, about to take off in his dreams.
