Each year, Katoney’s aunt plants a large vegetable garden, more than she can eat, and, at harvest time, she invites family members to come and pick vegetables for themselves. Katoney couldn’t get to his aunt’s garden until most of the vegetables had been picked. He wove the Angry Birds to depict his disappointment at the poor selection of vegetables left for him. |
