I realize it is a re-working of the artwork they’ve been using for ten years, but this has taken a dark turn.
A. I read in the dark with my Paperwhite.
B. What makes you think it's a boy? Could be a girl. In today's world, if you're a liberal, there are even other choices.
C. What even makes you think it's a child?
