Featured Monologue – The Adventures of Pippa Higgins
PIPPA: My father built his very own animal gadget which, when used, will make any living creature fall peacefully asleep. He would never harm any living creature, ever. My father is a craftsman and an inventor and he creates wonderful contraptions to help make improvements in science and technology. My father loves animals and all living life and he wished to help Radford the Rabbit because he was ill.
The same way my father helped Faris the Fox and Tabata the Turtle. My father helps all animals in need by taking them into his work lab and treating them with medicine. After he nurses them back to health and they make a full recovery, they are stronger, faster, smarter and happier than ever before. (beat) Don’t you think it possible that what you consider a magical wand was actually my father’s invention?
