Greg: Mom, who’s that little boy over there? Why is he nodding his head like that on the road? He looks so strange.

Mom: Greg! It’s not polite to talk about people like that. He’s just sick.

Greg: Oh, I’m sorry. I won’t do it again. But who is he? I’ve never seen him before.

Mom: Warren just moved into the apartment next to our house. Mrs. Hooper brought him home last month. She wants to take care of children who need special help. Warren is one of them.

Greg: Can I help, too?

Mom: Of course. But the first thing you should know is, though people look different, we are all the same. We all need love and care in difficult times.

Greg: I see, Mom. Let’s find some time to visit Mrs. Hooper and Warren.

Mom: OK, we’ll do that.
