"I think maybe I didn’t want a book that details how animals are trapped and killed. I don’t care if they are considered pests. This is just making me sad." — Jul 11, 2024 12:09PM

But to try to understand another creature, to put ourselves in their place, to help them - even when it costs us - that shows strength, Sophie, not weakness.”

“My father once said we are all dealt a hand at birth. A good hand can ultimately lose - just as a poor hand can win - but we must all play the cards fate deals. The choices we face may not be the choices we want, but they are choices nonetheless.”
