I found this little children's version of A Tale of two Cities. Even saying that kind of sounds weird. Anyway, it fits in you pocket and there is a picture every page. I thought Noah would like it or at least tolerate it because I noticed that when we read an illustrated version of the Monkey king, Noah only wanted to read the pages that have pictures. Usually I read the book on the train and then Jonah takes it awy from me and pretends to read it. It's not really working so probably I should stop. It's just that the size of the book is so convenient. But It has gotten me interested in the plot. So much so that I borrowed the real book from the library today. Somehow I've managed to live this long without really reading the book and despite countless introductions to the story through TV I managed to remain not all that interested in the book. Not sure why.
But when I was reading the child's version it somehow seemed so relevant to modern day politics. You know, Snowden and that sort of thing. Well off to try and read it.
