what she wants

Babs loves to read. She has about five or six favorite books, which she will find on the shelves, then drag to me or my husband, then hand to us. If we don't notice this effort on her part, she will squawk and fuss until you read to her.

Which is rather unsatisfying, as she usually wants to hear about two pages before she is ready for the next book. With Kiddo, my husband insisted she listen to the entire book. She rapidly developed the patience for long books. He's not so insistent with Babs. Second child, anyone?
