A weekly segment in which I interview some young pup on what they are reading.
YFNL: Why, hello, Miss. I noticed that you are reading one of my favorite books,
The book that eats people by the amazingly talented Ann Arborite, John Perry and illustrated by Mark Fearing.
Young Miss: Yes, I am.
YFNL: I wonder if you would mind if I interviewed you about the book.
Young Miss: I would not mind at all.
YFNL: For the purposes of our interview, I will allow you to choose an alias so as to prevent weirdos from reading this and knowing your identity. What alias would you like to choose?
Young Miss: I choose Your Friendly Neighborhood Weirdo.
YFNL: Are you mocking me?
YFNW: Maybe.
YFNL: Can you tell me a little bit about
The book that eats people?
YFNW: This book is about a book that you should never read while eating food. If you do, it will eat. you. up.
YFNL: What is your favorite part?
YFNW: My favorite part is when the book eats Victoria Glassford after hitting her over the head.
YFNL: A fan of violence are we?
YFNW: Quite.
YFNL: How do you feel about the illustrations in the book?
YFNW: I like how the illustrations look like they are cut out of newspapers.
YFNL: To whom would you recommend this book or would you recommend it at all?
YFNW: I would recommend this book to my annoying brother.
YFNL: Are you hoping that the book eats him?
YFNW: Yes.
YFNL: Well, thank you for agreeing to my interview. I bid you a lovely day.
YFNW: See ya.
