Le premier jour de Sacha

Sacha sits hugging a brand-new red backpack against his chest, a plush white rabbit with one crookedly sewn ear peeking out from the partly open top of the bag. He looks small and thoughtful, clutching the bag tightly. Soft warm evening light fills the room. Characters: Sacha: A six-year-old boy with short brown hair, round cheeks, light skin, wearing blue pajamas with small yellow star prints. Pompon: A small white plush rabbit with soft round body, one ear straight and one ear sewn on slightly crooked with visible uneven stitching in cream thread. Style: Layered paper cut-out diorama, matte card stock, visible paper edges and drop shadows, soft studio light, bold simple shapes. Gentle and child-friendly, warm and reassuring, nothing scary or violent. No text, no letters, no watermark, no speech bubbles.

A sunny schoolyard at recess. Exactly two children and one adult in the whole picture: Sacha, a single boy, and Inès, a single girl, stand side by side in front of a low stone wall, laughing out loud.

In a bright classroom, Sacha sits at a small desk concentrating as he traces a large curving shape on a sheet of paper with a pencil, while Inès at the next desk draws a small heart shape on hers, and Madame Lou stands behind them with a warm encouraging smile, leaning gently toward their work.
