C-Thunda: We learned about grasshoppers today at school. My teacher taught me about them.

Granddaddy: Oh yeah, baby? What did you learn about them.

C-Thunda: We learned they like to hop around on the grass.

Granddaddy: Did you see any?

C-Thunda: Yes.

Granddaddy: It’s a good thing no birds were around. Birds eat grasshoppers.

C-Thunda: Yeah, and the grasshoppers don’t like that.
