Learning to Read

Joe is 5 and learning to read.


He points at a picture in a zoo book and says,

"Look Mama! It's a frickin' Elephant!"

 Deep breath .. "What did you call it?"

 "It's a frickin' Elephant, Mama!

It says so on the picture!"

 and so it does ...

 "A f r i c a n Elephant "

 Hooked On Phonics strikes again.
