sagacity

from Six Just So Stories

Text

Ahhh, sagacity. Yes, yes, yes, I know that word. I am sagacious. I’m also hyper which is why I bounce around my cage like I’ve been shot out of sling shot, but I’m also a hamster of keen intelligence. Hey, I’m just smart. If you have sagacity then you are sagacious. I observe and listen carefully. I know if someone is trying to trick me. Last week a hawk told me if I came out of my cage he would take me to a blueberry muffin, but I knew all he wanted was a hamster snack because I could hear his stomach growling (it sounded like a train) and I was watching his eyes. He looked at me like I was a juicy hamburger. My sagacity saved me that day.
