Guangzhou, China – The twins are 22 months old when this video was taken. This is a video of me reciting Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are from memory (and later sought the help of the book in Antoinette’s hands because I forgot some lines). After more than one year of reading this book to them, the twins are now familiar with the sequence, some words, and even a set of actions I made up to go with the story. 18 May 2015
