“It has often been said
there’s so much to be read,
you never can cram
all those words in your head.

So the writer who breeds
more words than he needs
is making a chore
for the reader who reads.

That’s why my belief is
the briefer the brief is,
the greater the sigh
of the reader’s relief is.”
- Dr. Seuss

I know, right? I figure I can at least keep this in mind, like many other life lessons from Dr. Seuss.

If I had things my way, I'd carry around Oh Say Can You Say ALL THE TIME. And read it to people on the train. :)

Why not? It's not a very big book.

I like the one about the East Beast and the West Beast best.

Mainly because it's at my mom's house in Wisconsin. :)

I think my favorite one was about the brothers who stood on each other's heads. But the East Beast and the West Beast were pretty great too. Also the freshest fish one. Also.. um.. the rest of the book. I'm so bad at making up my mind.
