Japan

At the dinner table, Liam is pretending to be a magician and he hides his fork behind his back…

Liam: You see? It disappeared!

Me: Wow! And where did it go?

Liam: It just disappeared!

Me: But where do things go when they disappear?

Liam: To Japan.

Me: Oh!

Liam: And do you know who else is in Japan?

Me: No, who?

Liam: Cinderella… and the 3 little pigs… and the muffin man…

Me: No way! And do you know who else lives in Japan?

Liam: Of course! (eagerly) Séan and Sarah!

Just in case you didn’t know, that last part is in fact true. Séan and Sarah are Liam’s cousins who do, in effect, live in Tokyo. I think this proves that he thinks wherever they live must be a really mysterious fairytale place…
