Sections like "to be gored by a bull" and "to participate in an orgy" are fun and well written. Others like Neil Armstrong's description of walking on the moon are unimaginable and he captures it well. But there are lots of sections of the book that just don't seem to capture what your imagination can conjure up. I confess that all three of my children (10, 13 and 15) LOVED it. I had to extend the library loan period because they wanted to share all the stories with their friends and teachers. So maybe I'm just too jaded or expecting literature from a light read. ”
