Dear Stephen,
It is so hard to write to you on one thing because you have so many things to wrote on it is insane. But, I love your book and how you use humor to talk about regular life. It's so funny how you address yourself. And, it's weird when you say in the first sentence of the book that "I am no fan of books. And chances are, if you are reading this, you share a healthy skepticism about the printed word" (vii) because I don't like reading.
I wish I could share something with you when you were a child, and that was the fact that you saw two rhinos do it. Oh boy, would that be a funny story. I love how you just made it one sentence it actually made it ten times funnier then telling the whole thing. You are a genius.
I also love how you have so many opinions and you'll say whatever you want and you don't care at all what people say back, because most of the time it's flat out true and they have nothing to say. My favorite part during "The Family" is your rule settings. I agree with you that if the rule doesn't make sense it doesn't matter because the important thing about it is that it is a rule. And, if the kid doesn't get it they will spend time trying to figure out why not to do something instead of out doing something bad. My personal favorite is "Jell-O must never be jiggled" (11) and I don't have a reason why it's my favorite it just is.
