Just for fun, here is the first book I ever "published," verbatim, all spelling errors included and sans art, since I don't feel up to scanning it all. Third grade. Guess what movie I just saw. This may make a lot of sense in many ways to some people.

-----
Far off on a distant planet called Mousetonee, there lived a whole group of mice. They called themselfs the Mousetonees. And they all lived in a mouse-ship. It looked like a big mouse.
One day, the Mousetonee's leader's wife had a baby boy. It was just like all the other mice.
One day a comet hit the mouse-ship.
It had death-rays in it. So the leader sent the baby mouse in a mini-mouse-ship hoping that it would land on a different planet far away. The planet of Mousetonee exploded.
Thousands of mice all over the planet died, but the baby boy did not die because he was sent out into space.
He only traveled for 3,000,000,654 miles. He was learning how to control the ship and the ways of space. And soon, his mouse-ship crashed on Mouse.
His mouse-ship was dented badly. He got out of the ship and crawled very fast all the way over to Mostate.
The mini-mouse-ship exploded when he crawled to safety just in the nick of time.
For the next few years Supermouse lived in Mostate taking care of himself.
Supermouse grew to be five years old and then he went to school. When he finished with college he went on a trip to Hawaii. He loved it so much, he decided to stay.
The first person he met was Denys. Otherwise known as the greatest hawaiian dancer of Hawaii.
And then, he had to go back to Mostate so that he could earn money. There was a sworm of tornadoes in Mostate. Supermouse saved thousands of lives by land, sea and air. People's homes got wrecked. Some people survived the death of their lives.
So he went back to Hawaii. There he found Denys. She was dead! So was everybody else! How could this happen? Then he stared at a volcano. There was lava all over the place.
Then with a twinkle of his toes, and a twinkle of his fingers, he pushed all the lava without getting burned, back into the volcano.
He snapped his fingers and woke everybody up. And they thanked him as much as possible. Some of them said, "What happened? Where am I?"
The next day, a plane flew over Hawaii, and he saw two people get out. The first person he saw getting out of the plane was Miss Mouse.
She was very pretty. She thought he was very handsome, so they got married. And they lived happily ever after. As for Denys, she got married too.
THE END
