I was reading Puff The Magic Dragon to Jake this evening. When I got to the bit were Little Jackie Paper came no more I looked over at Jake and he had tears in his eyes. I asked him what was wrong and he said it was because Puff was sad.
This is the first time little Jake has shown empathy in this way. What a beautiful little boy! He was okay though because in this version Little Jackie Paper comes back after he has grown up and his daughter becomes friends with Puff.
