Had the granddaughter this weekend, read her stories at night. Seems that there’s some weirdly described themes in some of these newer books.

One of those was this little number called Kitty Corn, about a kitten trying to be a unicorn. For reference:

In it, this little cat made a paper horn and tried to present herself to her friends as a unicorn. Those two friends told her she would never be one. She just wasn’t a unicorn. Lo and behold a real unicorn showed up, and the little cat saw the differences between her and it. She realized she could never be a unicorn, no matter what she did. However in an odd twist, the unicorn told her that she always wanted to be a kitten, and with the kitten, wanting to be a unicorn, ergo, kitty – corn. it ends with the two of them laying together and their shadows blending so you couldn’t tell either one apart.

One of the lines repeated several times was: “I see you”. Not sure what that is, but seem to be important enough to say, over and over.

Checked out the author she’s not a jew, oddly enough. Has a couple other books that don’t seem to be along the same lines, but I haven’t looked into everything. I had to interrupt the story to tell the granddaughter that the kitten was just pretending. Because she clearly couldn’t be a real unicorn. No matter what she did she couldn’t be a real unicorn.

Needless to say, that book is now off the list of nighttime stories.
