I could stop anywhere in the story and she could finish the sentence. I tried reading it to my son, and he jumped up running in mid air and screaming for me to stop when I got to the part of Peter and Mr. McGreggor. He would run from the room and refuse to hear the rest of the story. Every year or so I would try again with the same results. I am not sure he stayed in his seat and heard the ending until he was about 8.
