Day 2
Something I meant to get back to in Blog2ober was talking about some of the books I read to my son. I’ve been meaning to talk about the classic, “Everyone Poops.”
Now the temptation is to make a bunch of poop jokes, but I think that would make for a “crappy” blog. (That’s all I promise) What I wanted to get into was how the book totally leaves you hanging. There are two unanswered questions that the book asks. The first is…
Well that’s easy enough. I know the difference between a snake’s head and it’s butt…I’m not a member of congress or something. (BOOM! Politics!) But here’s the next question the book doesn’t answer…
Uh…I have no idea what whale poop looks like and you don’t show it on the page..or the next page or any page after that. Until this moment, I never cared what whale poop looked like, but now I wanna know. I assumed it looks like any ol’ poop, but why would you ask if that was the case? Since I’m reading this book out loud to my son, he’d like to know too now. What am I supposed to tell him? You just raise these questions and leave us hanging?! YOU”RE A MONSTER, TARO GOMI!!!
Since I don’t want to be “that guy” (well, at least not today) I went ahead and googled whale poop so you don’t gave to…
If that wasn’t enough to satisfy your curiosity, check out the website I took it from. You’re welcome!
