๐ Can I open it? May I? May I? Pleeeease.
๐ No, today it's my turn.
๐ Typical! I'm never allowed to open a package.
๐ I don't understand. You just freed Niara and Mneka two days ago. Have you already forgotten that?
๐ No, didn't forget. Just ignored. I just wanted to tease you dad.
A little bit laterโฆ
๐ A book?
๐ A book!
๐ How did that happen? Normally only stuffies come in the mail.
๐ I dont know. But look, there is a lion depicted.
๐ Oh, it looks cool. But also a little scary. Are there more pictures or do we have to read in the book too? Darn, we have to read. So, come on, Dad, read it to me!
๐ Does this really have to be now?
๐ Yes!
๐ But I'm very tired and-
๐ It's afternoon. Why are you already tired? Have you gone after the cats in the neighborhood again?
๐ Young lady, I don't know where you got stories like this about me, but none of it is true. Still, I'm tired.
๐ Those who can chase the cats can also read aloud. Read to me, dad!
๐ Sorry, but I-
๐ Dad?
๐ Honey, I have to tell you something: Your Dad- I- I can't read properly. I tried to learn, but it was really hard and- I'm so so sorry baby.
๐ Why didn't you ever say a word?
๐ ...
๐ But you don't have to be ashamed of that, Dad. Especially not in front of me. You're the best dad a little Swede could ask for. What does it matter that you can't read?
๐ What does it matter? A father who can't read to his daughter - that's a shame.
๐ Then just learn it! Or can you no longer learn this from the age of four? We can learn together if you want - father and daughter learn to read. That would be great. And in the meantime, Mara can help us out. After all, it's a book of lions. Guess, she'll love to do.
A little bitty laterโฆ
๐ฑ Then let's see what you've found here - wow, but that's a wonderful book. And about lions, too. Oh, that is written in a foreign tongue - it seems to be written entirely in English. Reading will be a bit bumpy, i think. But i'll do my very best.
๐จ PS: I can't wait for "Remembering Cheetahs" to arrive.
