Jack Gan­tos: Slobberific

“Some­times when you stare out the win­dow it’s like watch­ing the movies in your mind.” —Jack Gan­tos.
And some­times, you make read­ers laugh so hard, they slob­ber them­selves, and while they’re laugh­ing, you sneak in a nugget of pro­fun­dity and insight that once they’ve stopped laugh­ing and cleaned them­selves up, they say, “Huh. That’s so right.”
