All of those weird books were written by humans.
Those humans were a lot like other humans.
They had noses and butts and toes.
They ate food and they breathed air.
They could add numbers and spell words.
They knew how to have conversations and how to use money.
They had girlfriends or boyfriends or both.
Why did they write such weird books?
Was it because they saw other humans kill each other in wars?
Was it because writing weird books can get you a lot of attention and money?
Was it because they remembered feeling weird about their moms and dads?
People talk a lot about that.
Why do they talk a lot about that?
