Legos are something that kids will never have enough of and they are something that gives kids freedom of adventure and being whoever they want to be. This is a summary of this article because it explains what legos mean to kids and how much they enjoy them.

"Like sparklers and hugs, Legos are things a child can never have enough of. Wise parents not only understand this, but support their child's Lego habit, sometimes to the tune of hundreds or thousands of dollars over the course of a childhood." 

This line has an impact on the reader because it tells us how legos are loved by kids and it will always be a part of their childhood. Some observations of syntax that I noticed is that the word child is used more than once. This is used to get the point through the reader's heads that children are the one's that love legos.

Ramsey's writing style is that she writes in short small paragraphs to make it easier than if it was one big chunk. She also includes questions for the reader to think about. 

Questions:
1) Have you always wanted to be a writer?
2) Before you became a writer, what was one of your job options that you thought about?
3) If you weren't a writer, what do you think you would be doing now instead?
