Roald Dahl or Enid Blyton - They are absorbing everything!!

Me and my 6.5 year old were reading Matilda by Roald Dahl yesterday. The LO is a fan of Enid Blyton's faraway tree.
We read a sentence - The parents , instead of applauding her called her a noisy chatterbox and told her sharply that 'small girls should be seen not heard'.
Snap comes a observation from the little girl in my house "This is the exact same thing that the Old woman told Silky"
( Silky is a loveable fairy and old woman is an old woman from the land of old woman in the book 'Magic faraway tree' by Enid Blyton )
The kids absorb and record a lot . We can never assess the extent of it. Keep reading a lot of it.
