Calvino's Essay: Question 1

The thesis in this essay was particularly hard to find. That may be because I'm unexperienced in writing, but hey. I came to the conclusion, after much contemplation mind you, that the thesis was simple, we should read the classics. A thesis is suppose to be the idea that you are proving. Calvino's essay is devoted to giving us reasons as to why we should read the classics. This is what lead me to come to this conclusion. It is never explicitly stated, although. Therefore it is an implicit thesis. I really don't know how to type 200 more words about this. For realsies. I told you what the thesis was and I couldn't tell you were it was because it was implicit. Now I'm stuck here writing random jazz in order to get to 200 words. I really don't know if I'll get points off because really I answered all the questions. I simply could not think how in the world I was suppose to elaborate off of the answer I came up with... This answer is pretty straight forward: I tell you what the thesis is, where it is, and if it is explicit or implicit. I simply cannot think of anything else to say! Now I'm just a babbling baboon. That's from Harry Potter :) Professor Mcgonagall to be exact (: She's cool beans. Especially in the last one. Back to the thesis and the fact I cannot think of anything to write about it. Still cannot think of anything to write about it.....wow! Turns out I have about 250 words! Score :)
