2     "Oh, were you talking to me? I guess I didn't hear you. I was really into reading my book. It is all about dinosaurs. I like dinosaurs. Do you? I even have a dinosaur of my own. His name is Mr. T.
 
3     "Mr. T is a Tyrannosaurus rex. That means ‘tyrant lizard king.' Mr. T is just a stuffed toy, but sometimes I think he is trying to talk to me. He wants me to learn all about him.
