#JLS doesn't fight anybody - he's only a seagull after all

[jodjuya]

Finished reading "The Jungle Book" to my daughter.

I love reading archaic English. All those 'thou's and 'thee's are just so delightful to me.

Next book is "Jonathan Livingston Seagull".

I really like this book. I've read it a few times before.

It always feels so portentous, like it's supposed to be a big new-age Jesus allegory or some such.

But I've never been able to figure out any deeper readings with this text, so I always just enjoy the surface-level fable of like, "what if Goku from Dragonball Z was a seagull wouldn't that be pretty neat??" and leave things at that. Still a fun book though, at whichever depths you can plumb.
