we passed an autistic boy who froze and cried out, fingers and toes!, fingers and toes! while his mom tried to calm him.
 

 this was outside the park shore where mr. went to request favor, and where marcelino being a gentle man of dogs fulfilled. whereupon mr. looked into doorman's booth to see if another man of good favor would emerge. then a man with a satchel came and gave me and marcelino a baby blue pocket bible, which we obliged him by taking graciously though marcelino questioning if the man of gideon was trying to tell him something.
 

i told marcelino about the autistic boy and he laughed and told me he just saw a film about that, where dogs like mr. were training for autistic children.

you will note these pictures do not set the scene really and may have something else to say but will have to serve.
