Me and Henry (age 8)
- Me: Henry, what can I do to get you to like reading more?! You read really well.
- Henry: I don't know, get better books?
- Me: Here, this one is really good, "Henry and The Clubhouse"
- Henry: You tried to get me to read that one last year by telling me Henry and his friends made drugs in the clubhouse.
- Me: I did?
- Henry: Yeah.
- Me: What about this one? "BFG" is stands for Big Effin' Giant. What is this inscription in the book? This isn't even our book!!! It says, "DEAR JOHNNIE, I LOVED THIS BOOK WHEN I WAS 8 AND I STILL DO. MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM CHARISSE"
- Henry: Where did it come from? Who the HECK IS CHARISSE?!
- Me: I don't know but you are 8 and this was Johnnie and Charisse's favorite book when they were 8 and your name is Henry and Johnnie and Charisse are probably dead and will haunt you until you read it. You're reading it.
- Henry: Ok.
