We were watching The Black Cauldron and it was getting near the end and the plot was tense and my five year old son was worried, but my seven year old son reassured him and said, "Three things have to happen or this isn't Disney . . . Gurgi has to come back to life, Taran and Eilonwy have to get home, and they have to find Hen-Wen, the magic pig," and like clockwork, in the waning minutes, these three things came true and Ian was relieved and Alex felt very clever . . . so I'm going to throw in Old Yeller next weekend and really blow his mind.
Post of the year.
ReplyDeleteMake it a double feature with the companion piece Sounder. Let the depression ensue.
ReplyDeletei don't know "sounder." i will ook it up, but i assume it's the same plot as "old yeller."
ReplyDeleteoddly, it's about a phonetically challenged young whale.
ReplyDeleteThe Red Pony is a great children's book. I'll be in Sea Isle the week of 8/20.
