Pip reads his first book aloud

We got wind that Pip got picked to read The Very Hungry Caterpillar to his class at school last week. Cynthia (his teacher) said he did an excellent job and was so proud of himself. We were duly impressed because we have never had that book at home and Phil and I have not read it ourselves.

So when we were at the library this week I figured I'd pick it up and see if Pip would read it to me. He jumped at the opportunity and luckily Phil grabbed the camera just in time. This is literally his first rendition reading a full book to us with no prompting what-so-ever. If you get the book he actually got the words nearly perfect.

If they made bumper stickers that said "My kid just read The Very Hungry Caterpillar to me", I think I'd put one on my car.
