I was telling Gideon a "Gideon story" (I tell him a lot of stories, and Kathe is after me to start writing them down -- I know she's right...) in which Gideon was with a group of carolers. They sang "Stille Nacht", and Gideon told the group that his Dad had written a book about the Christmas Truce.
Gideon interrupted to ask if it was true that I had written a book "with pages, that people read?" I told him, not many people so far, but I had hopes that it would sell more eventually. I opened my laptop and showed him the illustrations I had used, and he pointed to one of my advertisements and said, "I have seen that!"
So I guess now he knows it's true. In the morning, I will sit down with him and page through the copy I had made at CreateSpace.
I'll try to find a passage from the book that I can read to him.
