Under the piercing gaze of one of Hitchcock's fake ravens used in "The Birds", John reads "The Raven" to Thomson. Thomson loves the thrill of something scarey, so when given the choice of what Dad would read to him, naturally he picked Edgar Allen Poe. I hope you find this reading as riveting as I did!

Thomson loves monster movies from the 1930's! They aren't really that scary, so they are fun for kids that are interested in monsters and such. They are really fun for the whole family!
