Jane Edith Wilson: At the Library

I was a real dummy when I was a little girl. I have an older sister who was a genius. Once a week, my mother would take us to the library, and my sister would get to the check-out, and she’d have ‘From Our House to Bauhaus,’ ‘German Architecture of the 1920s,’ ‘Taoist Poetry’ and ‘The Sun Also Sets.’ And then my little stack of books would be like ‘Jokes, Jokes and More Jokes,’ ‘Puns, Puns and More Puns,’ ‘More Knock-Knock Jokes Than You Could Shake a Stick At.’
