creepy dude

We keep our collection of Shakespeare's Graphic Novels in the downstairs bathroom. It seemed a good place to store books that I really want the kids frequently exposed to since they enter the room regularly and quickly become a captive audience.

Yesterday, Aidan came out of the bathroom and began describing to Dawson the book he had been reading while doing his business.

"There is this guy and he is stabbing this other guy with a big knife. There is a whole lot of blood. I don't know what book it was, but it looks pretty good to me."

Dawson replied, "That's a Shakespeare play, Buddy. It's called Macbeth and a king is murdered by a jealous man who wants to become king. The guilt of the murder slowly drive he and his wife crazy, though."

Aidan, who was nodding along said, "That Shakespeare is a real creepy dude. I like him."
