Little+Prince;+Chapter15.5

=Chapter 15.5= The grey seventh planet was inhabited by a man with many books (the only splash of color the entire planet had). He didn't read any of them except the one big book on top of the pile. "What is the big book about?" asked the little prince to the reader. "It's about every book! he replied. Little prince looked confused for a moment and asked,"A book about books?" "Sort of," the reader began to to answer. "Every book in the pile, is in this book! But without the pitures and different colored covers." "Why not just read the other books and enjoy the pictures and their pretty covers?" Little prince asked still confused. He picked up a little green book and blew the dust off the top. "Each book is so unique and fun, but yet yu chooe to read a book that's so boring?" "It's just easier to read one book rather than ALL of those books!" he said pointing to the colorful pile of books. "It's too uch work to go through every book! you have to flip through so many pages!" "But that's the fun in it all," the little prince argued back feeling a little vexed with the reader's laziness. "Looking at all the pictures in the book is always the best part of reading it!" "But it takes up precious time." "What else do you spend your time doing?" little prince wondered outloud. "I read!" replied the reader. "Then wh do you read th big book to take up less time when you have all the time in the world?" "So i can get it done!" "Done so you can do what?" aske the little prince again. "Read!" the reader looked down at his book and did not look back up again. The little prince shook his head in disappointment and whispred to himself, "Some grown-ups are just full of balderdash."
