Two Cartoon Tennis Players Meeting at the Net

A grinning tennis player leans over the net with his racket raised high behind his head, ready to smash a ball that bounces above him. Motion lines show the ball in the air. On the other side, a wide-eyed younger player with spiky hair looks worried and holds his racket low as he backs away in sneakers and shorts. The net runs across the middle with a crank handle on the left post, and the right post is partly hidden behind the boy. The lines are thick and the shapes are big, so small hands can color them without much trouble. Try giving the two players contrasting outfits, then talk about how each one feels.
