What does your dream house look like? What would you use it for? Where would it be? Think about it?

The Big Orange Splot: Mr. Plumbean lives on a street where all the houses look the same, and everyone likes it that way. Everything changes when a seagull splashes orange paint on Mr. Plumbean’s house. He decides to paint his house to reflect his colorful dreams. Although the neighbors are upset at first, one by one they talk to Mr. Plumbean who convinces them to use their imaginations to transform their houses to reflect their dreams.

Mr. Plumbean says that “My house is me and I am it. My house is where I like to be and it looks like all my dreams.”
