Извините, что на английском. Могу перевести на русский для желающих, но, боюсь, не так интересно получится.

George asked her.<br />"Eat less chocolate," Grandma said.<br />"Does chocolate make you grow?"<br />"It makes you grow the wrong way," she snapped. "Up instead of down."<br />Grandma sipped some tea but never took her eyes from the little boy who stood before her. "Never grow up," she said. "Always down."<br />"Yes, Grandma."<br />"And stop eating chocolate. Eat cabbage instead."<br />"Cabbage! Oh no, I don't like cabbage," George said.<br />"It's not what you like or what you don't like," Grandma snapped. "It's what's good for you that counts. From now on, you must eat cabbage three times a day. Mountains of cabbage! And if it's got caterpillars in it, so much the better!"<br />"Owch," George said.<br />"Caterpillars give you brains," the old woman said.<br />"Mummy washes them down the sink," George said.<br />"Mummy's as stupid as you are," Grandma said.<br />"Cabbage doesn't taste of anything without a few boiled caterpillars in it. Slugs, too."<br />"Not slugs!" George cried out. "I couldn't eat slugs!"<br />"Whenever I see a live slug on a piece of lettuce," Grandma said, "I gobble it up quick before it crawls away. Delicious." Ilfa Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:33:20 +0400
