Just got back into reading more to DS and we've started to read longer books. I got some of my old books out for him and thought he'd be alright with George's Marvellous Medicine and Esio Trot. (I think he might be a bit bemused by Esio Trot though)
I haven't read George's Marvellous Medicine for years though and I forgot that Grandma is quite scary and mean in the first chapter! I ended up reading the second one as well hoping that would cancel out any scariness and he didn't seem particularly shaken up but up until now all of our reading has been pretty tame - am I worrying/overthinking? I can't remember how old I was when I read that book.
