Sage's+Code+Dictionary



Text and Drawings by Natalie

Here is a Code Dictionary of **w**ords used as names of different animals for Sage. The reason Sage had code names for different animals was so that she wouldn't get m**i**xed up on what animals to look for. If she was a**l**ways on the **l**ook out for an animal whose name was mentioned, s**h**e w**o**uld be looking animals almost all the time. **B**ecause of this, Neal came up with code names for the different animals to keep Sage from getting confused on what to search for. Here is a dictionary of all of the codes...
