“How tall is this hill? How many leaves are on that tree? Who made this path? Are there bears in this forest? Have you ever slept on a bed of moss? Are ground pines baby trees? What kinds of fish are in that creek? Are there any caves in this valley? Which do you like best, teaberries or huckleberries? Are those mushrooms good to eat? Why do raspberry and blackberry bushes have thorns? How long did it take those ants to make that anthill? How many bees are in that honey tree? Are groundhogs furry little pigs? Why do squirrels like acorns so much when they taste so bad? Is fog really just clouds coming down to the ground for a rest?”
