Interpretation of Literature

Most colleges require incoming freshman to take "Interp of Lit." Here, Jack uses his stellar literary skills to interpret the symbolism behind one of his favorite authors, Eric Carle.

Oh great, this kid is just making something up on the fly. And I thought maybe I'd get some quality entertainment."

Slurp!

"Feed me, Seymore!"

"The Donger need food!"

"These fingers would taste better with some fava beans and a nice Chianti."
