“Have you heard the story about the time Emil got his head stuck in the soup tureen?” “Yeees…” “Have you heard it lots of times?” “Yesss!” “Oh, so maybe you don’t want to hear it again?” “Yes, we do!” they shout. Jan smiles at them. All your troubles disappear when you look into the eyes of a child. They absorb all the light in the world, and it shines out of them. He opens the book and begins to read.”
