Cat's Cradle Chapter 16 Summary

Back to Kindergarten

  • Dr. Breed picks up the argument from the last chapter, but Pefko believes she must have missed out on a lot in kindergarten. Breed agrees with her here.
  • Everyone missed out on a lot in kindergarten.
  • As they pass the educational exhibits, Miss Pefko calls them magic.
  • This arcane, medieval word heckles Dr. Breed's sensibilities, since science is the opposite of magic.
