Is Fudge in dis one Momma?

I read to the little boys every night before bed...
Right now we are reading
From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler,
which is a switch from our Judy Blume marathon of Fudge books.
When I read each character has to have a very distinct voice.
I was pretty thrilled with this new book because there are no obnoxious toddler voices.
Last night I was reading...
one of the characters was using a "magic marker" to write with.

"What is a magic marker?" Jack
"It's just another way to say marker." me
"Why is it magic?"
"It's not Jack, it's just a marker."
"It's a magic marker."
"Right, but that just means marker."
"Do you have to write on special paper?"
"No, it's really just a marker."
"But...do you have to write on special paper?"
"No."
"Then how is it magic?"
"Jack, it's not magic...it's a regular marker."
"Why is it called a MAGIC marker then?"
"I am not sure...but it's just a marker."
"A magic marker."
"Right."
"Does it only write on special paper?"
....
I determined after this circular magic marker discussion that reading in silly voices is
MUCH easier....
