When Sally was was 4 uncle Piaget wanted her to hide a dolls from the the policemen but he saw that she was too occupied. But his huge uncle said he could help with at least 90% from 3-5. Sally understood without explanation.
Then he had huge idea and went to the woods The chimps could help solve the problem. But meeting Dennet the philosoper, he just laughed.
Dennet took the subway and trasferred to Maxi a toy store where 3y old children stood and whimmerd because only half of 4y olds were allowed whil the 6 y could could walk in to the club and listen to pirner the guitarrist.
Dennet was hungry so he went to the avis gas station. They were out of food and told him in was the same in the BAKArei.
There he met GOPNIK and she offered him some smarties.
As he saw there were pencils incide he said: Doom, I knew it.
But the BAKArei owner said: "There is a second delivery" at 7. I can tell a joke from a lie thought Gopnik but I want to believe him.
We need different method said Dennet. How about staying in the environment obseving if they have good intentions. Well-man I said to Dennet: We could listen their to their talk at 3 and comare it with their talk at 5 to see if their desire canges with time. But Gopnik was too hungry and could only think about food: I allwawys liked broccoli, at 14 or at 18.
Look, said Dennett do you recognize this face that is Franz. Very charming said Gopnik. They jointly attended to a man talking and making motorcyle noises.
Did you know when Melzoff was 18 he he could not even imitate a machine?
So what said Dennett, and made a proposal to go drink an asti and eat a curry. That was a good proposal but suttonly a big bully came around the corner and they ran.
While drinking the asti, the thought of where they of italy, the language and the manby siblings italiens have. And that aults let them live there til they are much older, to prevent them to become victims of the mafia. When they saw a Wolf at the corner they signed to each other that it's better to leave.
