Munch on This

We have on our fridge a little magnet of Edvard Munch's The Scream, and Julia's rather taken with it. I think it's the colors, which are as appealing to toddlers as they are hellish to adults, but it's also that the subject is as immediately comprehensible as a picture book. She walks up to it, taps the face a couple times, then turns to me and screeches as loud as she can. She's only partly Norwegian, but that part includes her lungs and larynx.
