Emma Donoghue Quote

The Dora bag has straps, it’s like Backpack but with Dora on it instead of Backpack’s face. It has a handle too, when I try it pulls up, I think I broke it, but then it rolls, it’s a wheelie bag and a backpack at the same time, that’s magic. You like it? It’s Deana talking to me. Would you like to keep your things in it? Maybe one that’s not pink, says Paul to her. What about this one, Jack, pretty cool or what? He’s holding up a bag of Spider-Man. I give Dora a big hug. I think she whispers, Hola, Jack. Deana tries to take the Dora bag but I won’t let her. It’s OK, I just have to pay the lady, you’ll get it back in two seconds… It’s not two seconds, it’s thirty-seven.
