I Has a Dilemma
Sep. 13th, 2011 04:06 pmSo we ordered some Scholastic books for the kiddo through the school and they arrived today, much to his excitement. (NOT the dilemma.)
One of the things we ordered was a three-book collection of E.B. White novels. The dilemma is that I remember reading Charlotte's Web in second grade (same age as the kiddo) and I thought I might read it to him.
How am I ever going to get through it without bawling at the end and possibly freaking the kiddo out?
(Totally not a serious post.)
The other two books in that collection are The Trumpet of the Swan and Stuart Little.
On the plus side, I managed to convince him to get Sideways Stories from Wayside School by Louis Sachar, a book I read repeatedly as a child. I predict much giggling.
