James is continuing to enjoy his Garden of Verse. He asked me to read him 3 tonight and then wanted to have more - I did not realise how much he would enjoy poems. I am so glad we have been introducing this to him gently every night. Today we covered a little boy who was sick and who imagined a city on his bed with all his toys, with him as the giant. I asked James what a counterpane was and he did not know. I then realised - did I know? I said a duvet but later had to check - it turned out to be a quilt or bed spread so I was nearly right. This is SO good for stretching MY vocabulary.
