As this is the book forum I feel compelled to issue some homework. We gotta do something with it.

1000 words. A book you read and enjoyed and the aspects of the writer's craft which led to that enjoyment, please.

I will be dropping grades for poor spelling. It's just party, party party, innit?

Oh, and you have a week.

I really like Heat magazine.

The features this week include 'Why these women got so skinny' and 'Jordan vs Peter The feud that could tear them apart'

I feel it stimulates me intellectually and physically (since I have to walk round to the magazine section to buy it) I especially love the 'spotted' section that mentions who was picking their nose at specific traffic lights and who was shoe shopping in Topshop.

My least favourite section is the leaflets as they always fall out and annoy me.

The End.

The Gruffalo by Alex Schaeffer and Julia Donaldson.

The Grufallo, whilst seeming to be an inconspicuous work of children's fiction is a actually a fascinating social comment on the pitfalls and triumphs if being working class. 'The Mouse' our working class hero, guides us through the horror of his daily grind, encountering many a fierce creature along the way. 'The Fox' represents the bank manager, always ready to entice you into his lair, 'The Owl' is the tax man, he seems wise but can't wait to get his claws into you and 'The Snake' is your boss, underhand and sneaky. 'The Gruffalo' himself is nothing more than the meat head from the local boozer, looks scary and strong but is easily out witted.

The mouse out smarts the bullies by cleverly using misdirection and in the end gets to eat his lunch in the staff canteen of life, in peace and tranquility.

This is possibly the best work of modern fiction ever written.
