In fact, Kerouac was inspired by Cassady’s straightforward, vernacular writing style–the poet Frank O’Hara described it as “I do this, I do that”–and he adapted it to his own epic narrative: To tell the story of his journey, he just wrote down what happened. Cassady–Dean Moriarty in the book–was a colorful character, a charming and good-looking hustler, occasional car thief (or not-so-occasional: he claimed to have stolen more than 500 cars while growing up on the streets of Denver), and aspiring writer who accompanied Kerouac on most of his journeys. “On the Road” is an autobiographical novel about a series of cross-country automobile trips that Kerouac made between 19, both by himself and with his friend Neal Cassady. “Jack went to bed obscure,” Kerouac’s girlfriend told a reporter, “and woke up famous.” On September 5, 1957, New York Times writer Gilbert Millstein gives a rave review to “On the Road,” the second novel (hardly anyone had read the first) by a 35-year-old Columbia dropout named Jack Kerouac. ![]() ![]() ![]() Even older kids would benefit from making comparisons to the swinier version.

Summary and activities to do with the kids: Genre: Picture Book, Fairy Tale Retelling And the activity I’m going to share with you below was not my idea at all. This re-writing of the three little pigs, with three little robots and a robot recycler named Wolfgang, is a great book with awesomely gorgeous illustrations. He was excited to show it to his dad, and even more excited to say “and now is the scary part!” (It’s not actually that scary, unless you have a thing about machines being taken apart. This anxiety is increased when the machines have eyes and ears and are friendly characters in a book.) His anxiety about the book translated to an obsession with it and he read it over and over until he loved it. (He does NOT like reading about machines that break. I was too, even after we read it once, twice, a hundred times.Īnd even after we discussed the implications THOROUGHLY of what it means to be a robot and be taken apart. Recently while at the library to pick up a few hold items for myself, I gave my three-year-old about 30 seconds to pick up a couple of picture books (I know, top-notch mothering right there), and he was really excited to pick out Watch Out for Wolfgang. ![]() |
