Froodle (by Antoinette Portis)

4/5 = Really Liked It

Momma: Why did you give this book so many stars?
Fox: Because I liked that the birds were kind of silly!
Momma: Did the big crow like that they were silly in the beginning?
Fox: No.  Maybe because it hurt his feelings and he didn't like it.
Momma: What did the big crow want them to do?
Fox: Do stuff like real birds.  Talk like [real birds].  Like, "Tweet!"
Momma: And what did they want to do?
Fox: The little ones? They wanted to be silly!  Like, "Roodle-schmoodle."
Momma: So what did the big crow decide in the end?
Fox: That he wanted to be silly like the other ones.
Momma: Do you like being silly or serious?
Fox: Silly!  Sometimes when people are being silly or saying silly things I get kind of frustrated.
Momma: The big crow got frustrated, too.  But he decided that sometimes it's okay to be silly.  Silly can be lots of fun.
