SPECIAL WORDS Animals have their special words Birds don’t gather in herds Hippy-fox sex doesn’t happen in a fox-in Oxen don’t gather in flocks-en But whales do gather in schools . . . . And raindrops do gather in pools

Awesome imagery and a compelling message, Syd. If only humans could learn to live like the animals, we would be far happier. Love, Carolyn
