The Day I Got Lost
1. In the day I got lost there was a man whose name was Professor Shlemiel. Professor Shlemiel is a very forgetful man; he is constantly misplacing and forgetting to pick up his belongings. On his birthday he forgets where he lives so he calls his friends but there all at his party. He befriends a dog and a friend finds him and he goes home.
2. One theme of the story is that if you’re adult it doesn’t mean that you don’t do childish things. Professor Shlemiel would always forget where he put his belongings and would usually never find them again. This shows that even though he is an adult he sometimes does childish things. This also shows that he isn’t the best person to lend your things too. As a result, Professor Shlemiel meets a new friend bow wow and gas a good life.
