3.1 Warm Up: Why Do We Read Books?

Alpha. Isn't it obvious? Books teach us to behave.

Beta. Yeah, like Tom Sawyer in Sunday school.

Kappa. Tom Sawyer is a good boy.

Delta. Who said he isn't?

Gamma. I didn't.

Beta. Me neither.

Kappa. I am not even sure I don't like what he did in Sunday school.

Alpha. Well, you may like him personally, but he didn't show a very good example.

Kappa. So? You don't always show good examples, do you?

Beta. Hey Kappa, do you like Alpha for that?

Kappa. Come on, I'm serious here.

Delta. You're always serious.

Teacher. So, what about books? Why do we read them?
