A little boy on the tube is so worried about his soft-toy lion falling on the floor that he is saying to him 'Hold on tight Sycamore Jones!'

Miranda Keeling has made a habit of observing the people around her and taking delight in the things they say and the everyday vignettes she witnesses. She even wrote of book of these observations. But she continues to share them with everyone in her Tweets. Many of them have inspired illustrations and artworks.
Me (to a little boy beside me in a cafe who is wearing a yellow coat): Nice coat. Little boy: Thank you. It means when night comes I can hide as a star.

On Sunday, Keeling shared a multi-part Tweet with 13 of these illustrations she received after posting her observations. We don't know how true-to-life the illustrations are, but they will make you smile. My favorite is the one about Jeremy the rabbit, but I couldn't embed that one to show the whole picture. You can see all 13 of the artworks here. -via Nag on the Lake
