Hippo anecdote:
I was the "mystery reader" for my son's kindergarten class
this week and the first book I read happened to contain a
picture of a hippo. My son blurts out that "hippos are
dangerous" which I had to confirm (while discouraging such
outbursts).
I may be mistaken, but I think the other students and the
teacher looked at us both a bit funny after hearing that
we considered hippos dangerous.
Sometimes too much knowledge is not a good thing. :-)
