"Overheard at the Bookstore" by Judith Henry
Universe Publishing, 2000
- "Some people like to think, but me, I just like to read."
- "Do you have anything for dummies?"
- "This book is very expensive--I guess they charge by the pound."
- "I need a book that doesn't put me to sleep."
- "That's a really bad beginning."
- "So all your money goes for books, but food's important too."
- "I asked for a book on the Beatles and he sent me to the nature section."
- "The thing I don't understand is, who writes these books?"
- "The cover looks good, but don't be fooled."
- "I don't know the title or author, but the book's purple."
