The Reluctant Dinosaur
Although never habituated, Orion had been fascinated by his borrowed dinosaur costume (dazaza Apuhm) for nearly a month. He refused to put it on, until I rigged up a costume (also of borrowed parts), incidentally of Queen Elizabeth II in the 1950's. Then he wanted a costume, too, but screamed or complained the entire time it was donned.Even the presence of beloved neighbor children in costume didn't convince him.
You see, he prefers (demands) all extremities to be free from encumberances.
The new-to-us car (from another n.c.) was his only solace.
He really would rather wear a flower or leaf behind his ear; he just wants to be like his Mama.
