Mr. S.

Hey all! - For this prompt, I want you to tell me your all-time favorite book, and why. Did it change your life? In what way? Did it change how you think about things? How? Did you read it more than once? Was it different the 2nd time you read it - if so, how? Another way to think about this: Suppose the internet keeps expanding and, with exception to cereal boxes and stop signs, people do all their reading online. Which book do you smuggle into this increasingly (if not exclusively) electronic world? Or suppose the government starts banning and burning books. Which book do you save from the flames of censorship? WRITE ABOUT THAT BOOK.
