Flattering


Kids imitate.

A child's favorite character may

  write in composition notebooks

  and eat tomato & mayonaise sandwiches

and the child might very well follow suit.

Everybody did it-

with a detective

  or superhero

  some kind of character.

Innocence in mimicking something you love.
