Bwahaha! This is the first time i’ve seen this and it is hilarious. I laughed out loud in my morning coffee. Indeed, the highest compliment. Thanks Beth
Oh my God, this is brilliant. Children are so unpretentious, aren’t they? That is probably the new “He came, saw and conquered”: He saw, loved and ate it! 😀
It is so funny, Beth! I took this in a more literal way and wrote a response this am. But I must have not waited till it posted. 🙂 Oh well!
I was thinking “Eat His Words” would also make sense; as the child absorbs the words doing just as the monsters say in the book,”I’ll eat you up, I love you so!” ❤
I’ve seen this before. One of my favorites. 🙂
