Cute, But a Little Confused

Rebecca refuses to read The Very Hungry Caterpillar anymore. The reason is, it's upside down. Huh? you might (rightfully) ask. I didn't understand it at first either. Apparently when she looks at the first page where the sun is coming up, she thinks it is upside down because the sun is at the bottom. So she thinks the book is defective or something, and we can't read it. "No! We can't read the caterpillar book! See? It's upside down!" Then she shrugs and spreads her hands in an apologetic way, turns the book this way and that for emphasis, and then puts it back on the shelf and refuses to hear any sort of explanation. Sigh. And I really liked that book, too. Sorry, Eric Carle!
