From the time when her son was 11 months old until he turned 18 months Lenka Clayton extracted 64 objects from his mouth.
63 of them are represented in this brilliant visual catalog, 63 Objects Taken from My Son’s Mouth.
The one item not included is a sachet of rat poison that her son put in his mouth at 11 months. That object was flushed down the toilet while mom was in a panic.
