A childhood belief about toys

I used to believe that when I went to sleep, all my stuffed animals would come alive and go party in the land behind the mirror. I remember trying to cajole ‘me, telling that I knew they were really alive so it was okay to speak to me. I also remember begging to get to go along on the nocturnal jaunts to behind-the-mirror land; and, on at least one occasion, I beat the tar out of them for keeping up the pretense and not letting me through the mirror.
