A Caricature?

Draw someone who is traveling with you. You might try exaggerating a feature of that face. For example, if you think your sister has nice eyes, draw a face whose largest feature is the eyes. Or, you can make a different kind of caricature. If your brother is clumsy, draw a monkey with clown shoes on, slipping on a banana peel, and then title it something like “Jonathon, in his true form.”

WORDS to KNOW

caricature: An exaggerated version of something, done in a funny way. Good caricatures usually pick one feature that really stands out, and then make it bigger. Be careful, though! You could do a good caricature of someone with big ears, or a big nose, but they might not like it. If you can, pick a really nice feature, and concentrate on that.
