Not a bedtime story?

You may think you can read babies anything before bed, that they don't understand anything more complicated than I Am A Bunny anyway, so what's the difference? Well, I don't know if the uneasy sleep last night was because of nightmares, but I think I'll refrain in the future from reading The Fall of the House of Usher as a bedtime story.

I don't know what the fall of the house of usher is, but tete used to read us the lord of the rings when we were like a year old, and that's pretty nightmare inspiring. Ghosts, wizards, ogres, goblins, etc...

You could ask him ,but i don't think it was ever a problem

This is my counter:
