Cheetah 6D5

As an emerging writer, Tobin is curious about the spelling of his favorite words and asks us many questions. He also goes out on a limb and scribbles little notes to himself. When i found this one in his pocket, i had no idea what the cryptic message could possibly mean. The answer is easy, if your brain works like a Kindergartener: “Cheetahs can run as fast as 65 mph!”
Don’t see it? Cheetah as rough sketch on the left, 6-D-5 pronounces six-dee-five = 65!

Thanks, guys :)
Mika wrote a lot of phonetic notes at this age as well, but somehow never applied the technique to sounding out numbers. As an adult, this flexibility took me totally by surprise.
