Tale of Dictionary Pup

dictionary pup wanted to know each and every word. he read the encyclopedias, which some said was absurd. he took a pile of magazines and novels to his bed. falling asleep among books that were green, blue and red. you have to cut this out, his mother said, quite stern. but how else will I glean knowledge? How else will I learn? she had no argument for that, so he kept doing what he did. he is a college professor at Yale, this inquisitive pup kid.

I think it's best to let them chart their own course. For the most successful it seems to be reading.
