I'm GOING to do this meme :) The English major in me will not allow me to avoid it!
But I must tell you, RUN, DO NOT WALK, and get your hands on a copy of "The Phantom Tollbooth." It's really an adults' book, written in children's book style. And it's fabulous.
I'll have to see if the library can dig up a copy for me. After vacation, that is.
