On page 246, "The Hostile Hospital" by Lemony Snicket:
"There are many things in this world I do not know. I do not know how butterflies get out of their cocoons without damaging their wings. I do not know why anyone would boil vegetables when roasting them is tastier. I do not know how to make olive oil, and I do not know why dogs bark before an earthquake, and I do not know why some people voluntarily choose to climb mountains where it is freezing and difficult to breathe, or live in the suburbs, where the coffee is watery and all the houses look alike."
My son and I have been reading the "Series of Unfortunate Events" books together, and I find them very enjoyable even though the run-on sentences make it quite a challenge to read aloud.
