Avery's dream

there was a tree at school

and it only had four leaves left on it

and that meant only four people were friends

and everyone was a robot

and if they touched you

you would be a robot too

and I made Declan be my friend

I said why do you have to be mean to everybody

I said why can’t you just be nice

and he was nice

and he was my friend again.

(after telling me this, he went back to his breakfast. Then he looked up and said: I've got a big day today. The birds are teaching me how to fly. The bears are teaching me how to fight. And the bulls are teaching me how to release my anger.)
