Childrens
A “perfect pet” story from Justice Sandra Day
O’Connor.
Sandra is growing up on a desert ranch
surrounded by animals, but she wants one to have her very
own pet. A tortoise isn’t really friendly, a little rabbit
is too fearful, and a young coyote howls to rejoin his pack.
A bobcat almost fits the bill, but soon grows too big and
fierce to be a housecat. Sandra’s parents let her learn for
herself that these animals are best suited to the wild,
though it is often hard to let them go. Finally, a smiley
little stray dog finds Sandra. Sandra names the dog Susie,
and the two become wonderful friends.
