Post A8

Dear Stephen,

I have currently just finished your ingenious work of art. Marvelous is a word I would like to use to describe it's a true beauty. In a week, I usually don't enjoy reading more than 60 pages, but for me to finish this book it was joyous. The only thing is I didn't really like ending with the Appendix part because I hate George W. Bush so you kind of put me to sleep there but that's OK not everything can be perfect about this book. I truly love when you say "For the more you speak up, the louder you become. And, the louder you speak up in my voice, the louder I become. If someone has a problem with it, just say, "Well, it's not just my opinion, it's Stephen Colbert's opinion, and I happen to agree." Then it's two against one, and we win"(214). Even though you seem a tad bit selfish here, you also want to work as a team to get your points up, and if your points go up so does the teams. It's a beautiful analogy you have going there Mr. Colbert. Still though my favorite part of this book I would say goes back to page 3, My American Childhood. I love the story you tell there about the scary babysitter and your parents leaving you. That happens to probably every child on this planet of ours. And, the best part is when you say "My second memory is when we went to the zoo, and I saw two rhinos do" (3). Classic placement of those words because they had nothing to do with anything else on that page. I will love this book forever and will recommend it to all.

Goodbye and farewell,
Ellie
