SLEEPING IS SCARY?


This book Grandpa bought for V's little brother, R. It's quite a benign book (in my opinion) but what do I know!? Every time V sees this book she gets upset. She wants it to go back to Boston. Grandpa lives in Boston. I asked V what was it about the book that upset her? She said she didn't like that the boy goes to sleep. Then continued the sentence with, "and I don't like the napping house. I don't want that book or the napping house." I replied with, "so you don't like books with sleeping people in them?" And she said, "yes I don't like them sleeping." She started to cry wanting this book away-to go away. Far away. Back to Boston.
