Answer: The phrase "wet he hoof" means to get his foot wet. The author describes the setting with Bruh Deer at the edge of the river trying to cross.

Answer:
When I was little, my mama always taught me to be polite. She said it was one of the laws of the universe. That people were sensitive, and defensive and that little girls like me need to grow up knowing how to deal with these people, because they surround us. Some people will be rude, she said; they'll laugh in your face and complain and yell. But you always have to keep an smile on your face, because if you don't, you'll be one of those people. My mama also told me that if you are kind, the universe will reward you. She's always been into the idea of karma, and I always liked the idea of it too. It's a fair system. If you're rude and mean, you don't get very far in life, and if you do you're miserable because you're alone. If you are nice and kind, people will like you, and even when things are tough, you'll always have somebody there for you. And I think that's the best rule someone can have in there life; "Always be kind"
