"The Raven" children's version
While reading "The raven" by the great Edgard Alan Poe, i was asked by my little brother the reason i was laughing , speaking, and behaving strangely.I tried to explain to him the funny story behind Poe's The Raven but he did not find it funny. i red the poem at loud but it didn't scare him -- he tough that it was boring ; So i decided to find an adaptation of The Raven for children and lo and behold i stumbled upon the perfect match: the Simpson's' version of Poe's "The raven". To my pleasant surprise my little brother, who once found me weird, surpassed me in weirdness, and has been playing and replaying the video since that day. He especially likes the part where Homer Simpson vigorously jumps to catch the raven.
