Teasing...

To the movies again this evening. This time for a reprise of Return of the King with The Girls (aged 11). They have read the first two volumes of the book, but have not yet completed the the third. With an impish sense of fun, when we came out of the picture I criticised it for not sticking to the book. "For example, " I said, "In the book there is nothing about a spider - they just put that in the film because they knew i would scare me. On the book Frodo is waylaid by a giant kitten, and tangled up in it's ball of wool."

They looked at me askance, and giggled :-)
