Dixon and Hudson both made up superhero stories and told them to Julie, who promptly wrote them down. Dixon's simple yet detailed little story went like this:
"There once was a superhero named Dixon. And one day, there was a bad guy stealing corn. And Super Dixon hopped in his plane and got the superpower to appear and stopped the bad guy. And there was a bad guy pouring milk on people and making them sick and Dixon hopped in a circle and bounced him back into the water and he was dead. Dixon saved the day again!"
Hudson's story was quick, yet action packed. It went like this:
"Superhero Hudson, bad guy there, pow bad guy bow pow kapow. Hooray!"
And there is the best illustration I can provide that details the differences between my two boys. One wants a beginning, middle and end, the other just wants to get to the action.
