That last Dora the Explorer post was inspired by my daughter, Miss Sophie. She had been watching a particularly dramatic episode of Dora, in which Swiper the kleptomaniacal fox had stolen several items from our heroine and her monkey companion, Boots. Let's listen in to the conversation between my three year old and the television, shall we?
Dora: "Oh no! Swiper swiped Boot's boots! Can you see what else Swiper swiped?"
Sophie, icy derision in her voice: "Your backpack, you idiot. Jesus."
Daddy's so proud.
