About this listen

‘Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.’ – Albert Einstein (or not, as it turns out!)

So … can a fish climb a tree?

Can a horse drive a car?

Can a baby bake a cake?

And if they can’t, what wonderful things can they do?
