„For Heaven’s sake, Chris, why can’t you talk to me once in a while?“ Julie whined. „What?“ Chris replied. „Look around!“ Julie yelled, as she pointed around the room. „Look at all these books! You always have your head buried in a book! You don’t even seem to know I’m alive!“ „I’m sorry, honey,“ Chris said. „Sometimes I wish I were a book. Maybe then you’d at least look at me!“ Julie exclaimed. „Hmmmm,“ Chris mumbled, „that’s not such a bad idea. Then I could take you to the library every few days and change you for something more interesting.“
