Me: Josephine! There's a huge gnaw mark on If You Give a Cat a Cupcake! What the heck, kid?
Josephine: Hmm. That's really odd, mom. I'm not sure how this could have happened.
Me: Oh, really?
Josephine: Trust me, I'm just as shocked as you are. But honestly, I think it's fine. Look, it still works.
Me: Yeah, you have a point. I mean it's not ruined or anything ... HEY!!! Josephine: I ... I ... I ... know how much you love symmetry. Just thinking of you, that's all.
Josephine: Yeah. Symmetry. It tastes good.
Books are much better when eaten AND read. Josephine is a pioneer of this technique.
