nathaniel and jessenia were looking up and down a tall shelf of books in the school library, trying to find something, anything, that looked interesting. they were not having much luck. "why do they make us come in here? there's never anything good," nathaniel complained.
"no kidding," agreed jessenia. "there's no such thing as a good book."
the new librarian, a tall gentleman, must have heard them because he called out, "whoa! " and rushed over to them. "no good books? when i was your age, my dad told me, 'if you don't like reading, it's just because you haven't found the right book yet.' let's see what we can find for you two. what about you, little man? what's your favorite thing to do? "
"tae kwon do! " nathaniel yelled. "i take self-defense classes three days a week! "
"then check this out," the librarian said as he pulled a book from a nearby shelf. "this is a story about a young ninja in japan who had to protect his ruler while another was attacking the kingdom. sounds right up your alley! " he handed the book to nathaniel, who turned it over and began reading the summary on the book's back cover. "and you, little lady? " he said, turning to jessenia. "what are you into? "
"i dunno. i guess i kind of like magic," she told him.
"magic! well, then, i've got one for you! " he reached into a nearby shelf and pulled down another book. "this is a biography about harry houdini. he was a great magician who could escape from anything, including being handcuffed and being buried alive! " he handed her the book.
", i guess," she said. "well, nathaniel, i guess we should get back to class."
"i guess so," he replied. ", sir. i'm actually kind of excited about reading this book."
"you're welcome," said the librarian. "but you have to promise me you will read at least the first twenty pages. if you don't like these books by then, you can bring them back and tell me i was wrong."
"we promise," said jessenia. "but those twenty pages better be good! "

a. he has always enjoyed reading.
