Gabe has a new reading project for his class that he needs to read at least 6 books per month for the next 3 months in order to have an ice cream party in his class at school. So Tony and I were chatting about how when we went to school we would have to read books in order to get personal pan pizzas from Pizza Hut. Well he confessed that he hardly EVER read any of the books, he would just check them out from the library and say that he actually read them. He also said that for most book reports he could write the entire paper based on the picture on the cover, I was in absolute SHOCK!! He said the trick to that is finding a book that is really new and figure that the teacher probably has not had time to read it yet, therefore the teacher would not know if what you were writing was true or not...
I asked him, how come your parents let you do that, and his comment was well they did not know about it...well now they do!! (Note to self :have to make sure Gabe actually READS his books) GEESH!!
