‘Don’t be noisy, Geraldine. Don’t kick, Geraldine. Don’t bite, Geraldine. Don’t this, Geraldine. Don’t that, Geraldine.’It seems that all Geraldine hears is‘Don’t!’
Whereas once it was ‘Daddy, Mummy and Geraldine‘, now it’s Daddy, Mummy, Geraldine and Boo. What’s more, while Mummy and Daddy exclaim over Boo’s roaring and kicking, they order Geraldine to stop. They demand she not bite, too! What about Nellies, Roo and Croc? Can they hear and see her? Could it be that it all becomes too much? Then again, that Geraldine’s tears inspire Boo?Boo hoo?
