In "Wood and Stone (Materiality II)," Abram considers his daughter's relationship to the world around her. Until children acquire verbal language, their awareness is expansive. They do not see other creatures as beneath them. Language imposes this hierarchy. If children were allowed to discover their world with prolonged curiosity, they might have a closer relationship with the natural world.
