How could this title NOT get your attention? I mean really. If you heard this on the news or something, you would be wishing you'd never gone to school and wondering what kind of person you would be if you hadn't and...

Those were my thoughts when I passed this book at the library and caught sight of the title.

But no, All I Really Need to Know is really a collection of essays that are based on ordinary and simple things including kindergarten (hence the title). The essays are all fairly short, but they are delightful to read and interesting to contemplate. The simplicity of it all is the partial reason for the attractiveness of this book.

Simple, simple, SIMPLE - that sums up the book. It is entertaining, intriguing, and delightful. A great read. You really just have to try it yourself.

Your review makes this book sound a bit like reading some Thoreau, who I quite like. I've always thought the title was intriguing as well. I think I'll check it out!
