And not story-telling as a euphemism for lying, either!
Dobba Dobba is most likely a character from a computer game, but I don't know for sure. I've never seen him - though Ivo has described him so well, I feel like I know him! So here's some stuff about Ivo's imaginary friend, Dobba Dobba...
- He's 5 years old.
- He has a 2-year-old baby-sitter. (possibly baby-sister)
- He look like me.
- He is an Indian.
- He likes me.
- He lives at Grammie Gail's house.
- He likes... a litany of the same things Ivo likes!
- He likes making cookies.
- He have a spiderman shirt, like me. He have spiderman pants too... I don't have spiderman pants.
- He likes reading books by himself.
Plus a little Ivo Overheard:
- "Dat mines!"
- In mock exasperated mini-road rage, "What are your pwoblems?!" I LOVE this cuz, really, isn't it much more likely that someone driving an SUV the wrong way down Gong Yi has more than 1 problem?
- "I'm a wobot. I can change into a car or a soldier and a scooter."
- "The dr said I don't have to go to school today." (Not true.)
- (After swallowing some mystery morsel, in response to being asked what it was) "It was bread. I like bread." I like bread too. When there's no bread, I wonder what I can eat... "Chocolate?"
