Molly and the Bear by Bob Scott for May 28, 2023

Everything was great until we got to the blue pages

Math is super numbery and has a lot of squiggly lines.

Well, bear… they put a tree seed in the ground and put a slick of graphite centered over the seed, and the tree grows around the graphite and you get a pencil. Oh, and by the way, I have a bridge for sale…

Bear ….. same question that I wondered ….. just watched the YouTube about it that Teto85 posted …… you should watch it ………….. and Molly it will come to you, I had a tough time with Algebra ….. then suddenly that summer I understood it and it was easy ……. :)

I’m going to buy Bear a mechanical pencil. So he can actually put the lead in himself.

The same way you put caramel into a Caramilk bar.

Bear has a tough time trying to graphite, er, grapple with that problem.

Time for Bear to learn how to use the local library.

Math is easy and makes sense. Language and people – not so much.
