T-Rex loves to read cartoons. Every Sunday, he eagerly retrieves the Sunday paper, eager to read the new comics. Sometimes, he can even read them all by himself. While I have nothing against cartoons as a medium, some of the humor is not appropriate for my five-year-old.
I decided to use the comics from the Sunday paper to make him a custom comic book. All I needed was the Sunday paper and a cheap composition book.
I cut the cartoons apart and glued them into the book.
T-Rex enjoys being able to read the cartoons over and over. I feel better about the content he is reading, and as a bonus, the book is much easier to keep in order than all those big floppy papers.
