Thomas has always looted coming to see his old grandpa, not because he does not love the old man, no, he adored him and was always all over him when he visits them at their home back in the newly developed area of the town, but one thing made him not want to visit his grandpa at his own house and the reason was this, GrandPa's Piles of BOOKS!
Grandpa was a renowned educationist, a professor in sociology. He had dedicated almost all the later days of his life from when he clocked 15 to his present age of 84 to studying and dishing out knowledge. He always says, "One can never stop learning" and he seems to stick completely to that, always reading and re-reading every piece of paper he sees. Even the rats that once feed on his old books have gotten tired of that diet and opted for the waste bins instead.
You will barely get an inch to sit on any of his chairs except you decide to sit on books!
"Ugh! Grandpa is staunch book hoarder! I wonder if he finds time to eat at all!" Thomas once told his mum.
