I'm reading Beverly Cleary's "Henry and the Clubhouse", written in 1962, to the kids during meals. They have lots and lots of questions.
"What's a typewriter?"
"Why didn't Henry use his cellphone to call somebody for help when he was trapped in the clubhouse?"
"Why are kids going out trick or treating by themselves?"
"Kids can ride in the back of a pickup truck?"
"Who is the milkman?"
"Why is a kindergartener going to her friends house without an adult?"
...and so on, but my favourite:
"Can you please pause the book while I go to the washroom?"
