Favorite Book!

When I was in high school I never really read much, so I don't really have a favorite bood. But if I were to choose I would have to say that my favorite is Chimps Don't Wear Glasses. When I was in 1st and 2nd grade our teacher would read to us everyday, and she would always read this book. I used to look up to her and it was her favorite book too so it just kinda stayed with me. I will always love this book.
