Edgar Allan Poe...

Okay, M's white noise machine has several different background noises to choose from. One of them is a heartbeat and he said that one was "creepy". I agreed with him and said there was even a story written about a man who hears a heartbeat and it was creepy, too. Now he keeps asking me to read that story to him. So, what does everyone think? 5 1/2 a little too young for "The Talltale Heart"?

I think our library has a "children's" version (it's with the junior fiction). I don't know, though. Maybe as long as he really understood that it was pretend...

sounds like something my littlest niece would've wanted to hear at that age (and now, too, for that matter)
