On one of my message boards we were talking about Shel Silverstein and the book "Where the Sidewalk Ends" and I remembered how much I loved that book of poems when I was a kid. I thought that might be something Riley would enjoy reading. I was right! I got it from the library and he had it read cover to cover in a matter of days! I remembered my favorite, Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out! Anyway, in one of the poems, it mentioned a cannibal, and so Riley asked me what a cannibal was. I was trying to figure out a polite way of putting it, but I said, well, a cannibal is a tribe of people that live in the jungle and they eat human flesh. At this point Regan says, "Ewww, that's INAPPROPRIATE behavior!!"
