The French have to mention squirrels from time to time as they have nothing else to sell themselves with. Akkadian epics have the Anzu-bird, Tiamat and Huwawa. Though Huwawa might have been a squirrel, all things being equal...
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Or in a slightly more realistic variation of that suggestion, you could review a French/Spanish book *NM*

Unfortunately, my Spanish skills are nowhere near good enough to read a book.

Akkadian is far more interesting to read things in than French.
