“Reading Is Dumb There I Said it” by Christopher Lehman is a story of a boy who grows up trying to understand the value of reading.
The story begins with a student. The student doesn’t understand the reading can do for you. “I found no treasure… I was busy thinking about the girls I’d rather be kissing.” (Lehman 1)
Furthermore, Mr. Christopher Lehman justifies the reasons you really don’t need to read in school to be successful. He clarifies what he does for his job and the fact that he graduated college without reading. “Take THAT assigned chapters of Fahrenheit 451” (Lehman 5)
Then, Mr. Lehman explains that when he got into high school, he had a crush on a girl who was very into reading particularly books along the lines of Cat’s Cradle.
