Monkey toddles over carrying his Elmo’s Guessing Game About Colors book and hands it to me.

Me: Elmo’s Guessing Game About Colors. Do you want to read this?Monkey : Yeah. (nods)
Me: Okay. (opens book) “Elmo wants to play a guessing game. Do you want to play with him?”Monkey : Yeah. (nods)
Me: “Elmo is thinking of a color. Do you know what it is?”Monkey : Rerrow (yellow). (The color on the page is actually red, but yellow is the only color Monkey can say right now. I quickly flip to the yellow page.)
M: Yay! That’s right!
Monkey beams.
