They show compassion Taylor Varndell, 8, Wicker Park
Taylor is very young, but she already exhibits a tremendouscapacity for nurturing. She regularly befriends new kids at herneighborhood park. In tae kwon do class, she always looks out for 4-year-old Danny. And she has a very special place in her heart foranimals.
The Varndells have two cats from the Anti-Cruelty Society; Taylorchose Mimi--the three-legged one--herself: "I thought nobody elsewould pick her," Taylor says. "She's just like any other cat."
Then there's Greta, the dog, with a mild case of epilepsy. Taylorhas developed her own system for relieving Greta's symptoms.
"I put her on my parents' bed and cover her with my magic sheepblanket that I've had since I was really little. Then I give her twodog treats. I don't know why, but that seems to work."
Taylor just likes helping others. "It's a nice thing to do."
