"This book gives me more information about penguins than I care to have."

“This book gives me more information about penguins than I care to have.”



-

In 1944 a children’s book club sent a volume about penguins to a 10-year-old girl, enclosing a card seeking her opinion.


She wrote, “This book gives me more information about penguins than I care to have.”


American diplomat Hugh Gibson called it the finest piece of literary criticism he had ever read.
