Sounds good! Sorry for the wait D:
It was a good thing that his father liked the book, because Gotham didn't want the man have to read things that were boring to him! And besides, the fact that Kansas liked the story too made Gotham's enjoyment of it seem more appropriate. He didn't want to like something that his father didn't like, because surely his father knew what was good to like and what wasn't! Clifford had passed the test, it seemed, and the pup was quite excited when the alabaster male found some more books about the dog. Yipping gently in anticipation of reading these very fine books in the comfort of the mansion, he wagged his tail even more furiously and peered up at his father with a great grin on his face.
As more books were spread out in front of him, Gotham contemplated each one carefully, peering closely at the cover of each. None of them seemed to have a big red dog, but since Kansas had found a couple more of them Gotham was satisfied, for the time being. There was a book with a creature on it - a monkey - that the boy didn't recognize, but it looked kind of silly so the boy pawed it forward a little to separate it from the rest. Another had a funny hairless thing on the cover, with hair just on the top of its head, and curious, he pushed that one out as well. His final choice had something on it that seemed faintly familiar; among some other animals, there was a lion. The great cat was the very creature that Cambria had mentioned to him while they were in the caves! Eager to learn more about the funny roaring beast, he pointed to this book as well. "These ones?" he asked gently, looking towards his father again.
