Не може всички да сме падни. ... "Надявам се тази книга да покаже, че не само красотата, а и грозотата е единствено в погледа на наблюдателя и че само защото някое животно е ощетено откъм външност, не трябва да го оставяме на произвола на съдбата. Някои от най-смахнато изглеждащите живи създания са възхитителни именно заради отблъскващата си анатомия. Техният огромен нос, смешна муцуна или нехармонична окраска ги прави единствени по рода си. Стига сме пренебрегвали ощетените откъм външен вид рожби на Майката природа! Заради пословичната привлекателност на пандата цял свят знае за тежкото ѝ положение, но ... |
