Why do you always want to blog about sea creatures?

Helen: I just like them. I don’t always, but…

We could blog about your last day at school tomorrow.

Helen: Probably talk about that tomorrow…

So, sea creatures again?

Helen: Yeah – I just like it.

Why do you like them so much?

Helen: I just do… Dolphins…

Just dolphins?

What’s so good about dolphins?

Helen: They’re just nice.

In what way?

Helen: Just… Just… Most people like that because they’re cute.

Are they clever?

Helen: Hmm… Yeah.

What do they do that’s clever?

Helen: Just… Well… They’re a mammal, which is good and that means… We are mammals, so… And they’re just a nice colour and…

Better than sharks?

Helen: Yeah.

Smarter than sharks?

Helen: No, but…

Are sharks clever, then?

What’s the cleverest sea creature?

Helen: Probably a squid. Probably is…

Why?

Helen: Do not know.

Are they nice?

Helen: Hmm… Nah. They shoot out ink, which is clever. That’s very clever.

But they’re not nice?

Helen: Nah.

Why not?

Helen: Just… They shoot lots of ink and it’s very hard to see.
