Locking into the Magic of Legos is about children's love for Legos, and how parents are willing to pay a lot of money for them. Legos actually help children learn and be creative with the things they build, whether it's from instructions or something they make up by themselves.
My favorite line is, "The first time a kid constructs a new set, he'll sit on the floor, contents before him, and pore over the instruction booklet spread out before him." I like this quote because you can visualize kids concentrating on building a new creation. I also like the long sentences that pay attention to details and shows the long hours kid spend building with Legos. The casual diction shows how fun Legos are and how they are a great pastime for kids.
Ramsey's writing style is casual, making her columns fun and easy to read. The casual diction also shows her voice well though her writing. Also, she incorporates long sentences to give the reader lots of detailed information.
If I were to ask Krista Ramsey some questions, I would ask the following...
1. What is the best way to incorporate voice into writing?
2. How do you get ideas on what to write about?
3. What kind of stories are your favorites to write about?
