Morrisson

This is Morrison, five years old. He is world-champion in running, angry looks and driving. Steven, his dad, taught him how to drive. His mother Nina is a vet and, according to Morrison, repairs broken animals. Just like his dad repairs broken cars in the garage.

Morrison’s mom is pregnant and the baby is expected soon. Steven warns Morrison that his life is going to be turned upside down when the baby comes. Overhearing his mom and her friend talking about the plans to turn his room into the babies room, and on top of that overhearing his mom and dad talking about him moving in with his aunt for a little while – Morrison takes all of this information and draws his own conclusion: he is going to have to move out to make room for the baby. For ever!

But Morrison won’t put up with that and together with his two imaginary friends crocrodile and bumper he comes up with a plan to be able to stay with his parents. Operation poo cake is just one of the things Morrison pulls of to get Steven and Nina attention – whom are in Morrisons eyes only occupied with the upcoming baby.

When the baby finally arrives Morrison decides there is only one thing left to do.
Take the baby and give it away!
