Dear Mommy,
Dad said this is a good book. It’s all about your people.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
About my people?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
Your people. Sapiens. Human Beans.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
Ahhh, you mean my people humans as opposed to your people dogs. Well, it is indeed a good book. Are you reading it?
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
I’m trying. I thought I should. To find out what your people are up to. And it’s kinda bad news.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
I guess we don’t come off too well.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
Not too well! Your people have killed off entire species everywhere you go. Even back in the stone age.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
I’m sorry. You’ve really gone to a dark place today. I don’t know what to say. Except that many of us try to be good.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
You’re good. But some of your people hurt dogs.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
I’m sad that you were so badly abused when you were young. But you are safe now. Maybe you should stop reading this book, and we’ll go for a nice walk.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
Ok but that won’t change what your people have done.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
I’ll bring the treats.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mommy,
I love going for a walk with treats!!!!!!!!!
XOXO Poppy
