The Eskimos got thirty different names for snow, I say. I read it in a book.
I got a cousin, Rachel says. She got three different names.

She got three last names and, let me see, two first names. One in English and one in Spanish…
And clouds got at least ten different names. I say.
Names for clouds? Nenny asks. Names just like you and me?
