\nThis is my favorite book in all the world, though I have never read it.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\nHow is such a thing possible? I\u2019ll do my best to explain. As a child, I had simply no interest in books. I hated reading, I was very bad at it, and besides, how could you take the time to read when there were games that shrieked for playing? Basketball, baseball, marbles\u2014I could never get enough.

I seemed busy, busy, busy, but I suppose, if pressed, I might have admitted that, for all my frenzy, I was very much alone.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
