IF - Poem

Remember the fear of having to read in front of your English class at school. Here's a top tip for all you youngsters out there, if you want to avoid being picked on - it use to work for me - when the teacher is looking for someone else to read - look intently at the book as if your really into the story. Of all my school years I was only asked to read about 3 times -that was for Macbeth, the part - King Duncan - go figure eh? somethings you just can't fight.
Sorry it's just another sketch this week.

Great sketch, can also relate I was very shy, and speaking in front of the class was torture.

my son actually memorized a book. His teacher thought He 'could' read. This is a great take on the subject.. (different).
