    “Make-believe is the avenue to much of the young child’s early understanding. He sorts out impressions and tries out ideas that are foundational to his later realistic comprehension. This private world sometimes is a quiet, solitary

    —James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    “They named it Ovation from the Latin ovis [a sheep].”
    —Plutarch (46–120)
