Is there another way you can say it?</p> <p>Jonathan: yes! moon-seen.</p> <p>Us (still bewildered)</p> <p>Jonathan: cat. Brown. moo.</p> <p>Me (aha, he is talking about his book): Mr. Brown goes moo, and the cat?</p> <p>Jonathan: yes. moo-sceen.</p> <p>Me (aha again): Movie screen!</p> <p>Jonathan (weakly, so we weren't quite convinced): yes. (and then stronger) yes!</p> <p>Heather's mom made a power point presentation of herself reading a Dr. Suess book, and Jonathan likes to watch it on the computer, and sometimes on the screen with our projector, and one of his favorite parts is a cat.</p>
