I talk

Mama and I are eating. I have stilled my biggest hunger and now I can play a bit in between. I suddenly remember my new library book: if the animals would start doing our sports, they would be the champions. The lion can jump far, the rhinoceros is very strong. The monkeys would have the roam of the play tools at day, the children would have to wait untill they sleep.

I tell mama the story from the top of my head.

'And then that monkey goes sleping, and then that monkey goes sleping, and then that monkey goes sleping, and then we can go, yeah mama? Yes, it's like that! And then that monkey goes upstairs (I point up our stairs) and he goes sleping in my bed, and then I go downstairsand then the monkey comes down too, and then that monkey, and that is ok, right mama? Yes, because he is my friend. Yes, I like that!'

I eat a bit more. And suddenly the tofu with the pasta has turned into a book. 'Book open', I say, 'mama is sweet, yes, that is what it says, yes.' And then I eat the book.
