Will he be Ross?
About a year ago we got a copy of Ten Little Dinosaurs by Pattie Schnetzler (and cool illustrations by Jim Harris). It flows really well, and gives some fun words to pronounce:
Ten little dinosaurs bouncing on the bed,
Pachycephalosaurus fell off and broke his head.
Mama called the doctor and the doctor said,
“No more boneheads bouncing on the bed.”
It’s been used as a bed-time story (or any-other-time story) quite a few times since we got it.
This morning as a way to pass time before leaving for school, he opened up a coloring book and his case of crayons, pencils, and markers. Looking for a page not yet completed, he stopped on one page and asked me, “Dad, why does the pterodactyl have tiny feet?”
Wow, he remembered it! I wonder if he’ll get his PhD and live in New York City with other 20–30 year-olds? 🙂
