Hugh
+1 for being able to bend the water in plants. That’s seriously cool.
+1 for the explanation of Nature. I’m brainwashing every child I know with this message. It’s a good message and a nice way to picture how humans are deeply connected and part of the world’s environment even though we often think of ourselves as separate from it.
