File under ‘cute’

I was in my daughter’s elementary school library early this morning when a second grade class came in. Since it is the beginning of the semester, the school librarian was explaining library procedures to the students. She explained that students shouldn’t try to re-shelve books themselves. When she asked the students to explain why that was, one second grade girl said the following:

“Books are like animals. They need to be in the right habitat.”

Library classification as ecosystem. I like it.

Brilliant— but what’s the version I could use to explain the problem to MBAs?
