-  By  the  time  I  was  better,  time  had  passed  by,  and  I  couldn’t  have
         children any more, without help.

         - Were you old?
         - No, I just needed some help for my body work like it did when I was

         younger.
         - I really, truly wanted to have a Dottie. I dreamt
         of her day and night. She had your face, your eyes,

         and your stripes.
         - Well done, Mum; You have taste. And how
         did you manage to make me? Tell me how did you

         make me?
         -  I  visited  a  very  good  doctor  who  helps  zebras  that  cannot  have
         children. And he, just like when we plant a seed into the ground and it

         turns  into  a  flower,  planted  into  my  body  a  seed,  that  gave  me  a
         beautiful  and  rascally  Dottie  like  you.  I  had  to  be  very  careful  that

         everything would go well. But, it did, and I have been really happy ever
         since I saw you coming!
         - Are there any other animals that are born like this? Without a dad

         but with the help of a doctor?
         - Sure.

         - But why aren’t any of them in my class?
