Each page has a Tell about it / Think about it / Look it up note at the bottom. Ends with "No matter how short, no matter how long, No matter how big, how smart or how strong, All life has a place, a purpose, and worth, All life is important on our planet Earth." nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
