New day job

Boy has a dream.
He wants to write his own Great, Big Animal Book*. He started the other day drawing a comparative diagram of a grasshopper's lungs and a shark's gills.

And then, this morning....

I'm drawing the lungs of a praying mantis tiger lion. Giant ones. And it has lots of bacteria around it to help it. Then the lungs die out and the bacteria help them back to life again by growing new skin around them.

Boy says he's going to teach me all about arthropods and stuff like that.


*the biology textbook that is a frequent feature of bedtime reading
