Rebecca McNutt Quote

Karen was cuddling her favourite stuffed animal, a mint-green toy deer which she called Annabelle. Sometimes Jesse wondered about this… Karen loved the taste of venison and couldn’t wait to shoot her first deer so she could brag to her friends about it. She had a pink camo baseball cap with hunter embroidered on the front. She enjoyed watching every year as Robert took out his big steel-bladed saw and sliced the antlers off his latest prize. So, why’d she cry every time she watched Disney’s Bambi? Why’d she treat an inanimate toy as a living thing, but a living thing as an inanimate toy?
