Bad Bargaining

I'm not sure if his counting skills aren't carrying over and if he really doesn't get bargaining yet, but this was funny. This morning Ryder collected a HUGE pile of books from his room (at LEAST 25 books) and told me, "Please read all these books." I told him that was too many and said, "How about we read three books?" To which he replied, "How abooooouuuut....read two books!" Obviously he's not understanding that one yet. He ended up picking out five books, which was fine with me since I expected him to bargain UP from three!
