Big, Gentle, Ugly
His name is Eric Wisdom. He's big, big all over, and he is ugly, very ugly, and mean-looking. But there is not a mean bone in his body. He is very frightening-looking. When people pass him, they move out, out of his way. But don't push him, for he can push back much harder.
And now he's going to have to know many times.
