* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Here's mine from Gennifer Choldenko's Al Capone Does My Shirts:

"Umbilical cord! And shut up about Mom's privates, Theresa!" Jimmy orders.

I look for a second at Annie. Something about the way that she's concentrating makes me think she's paying more attention to us than to her work. "How do you do, Annie?" I say in my most charming voice.

"Hello, Moose." She doesn't look up.
