Of course, at two her knowledge and understanding was FAR different than an eight-year-olds. But still, we had tons of books with international and multicultural characters and, in hindsight I realized, not as many with white characters. She would occasionally go up to people and say, "Are you Muslim or Jewish?" or some such question. They would be taken totally aback! <BR/><BR/>A couple times my husband and I pretended not to understand what she said because we weren't sure how to deal with the awkwardness. Not great parenting, I know, but sometimes when you're thinking on the spot this happens! <BR/><BR/> Anyway, she has totally moved on to other interests now that she's four. Stuff like Hello, Kitty. Which is a tad depressing since I liked the "International Stage" she went through. But I think that stage did turn her into the kind of person who has never thought of one particular kind of person as being normal.<BR/><BR/>You kids sound very interesting and fun!Lynniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10621633881622541213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28047874.post-10670601058082037932008-08-31T09:38:00.000-04:002008-08-31T09:38:00.000-04:00Aw, Benny.

I just wanted to pass on a book recommendation. I think Mr. Benny would love this one: http://www.amazon.com/Children-Just-Like-Anabel-Kindersley/dp/0789402017/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1220189768&sr=8-1Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10768213074489275231noreply@blogger.com
