- Title
Ankylosaurus.
- Authors
WIKLUND, JORDAN
- Abstract
An essay is presented in which the author describes how a juvenile rhyming book on dinosaurs impacted his life from childhood through his marriage. He discusses how reciting a brief poem on the Ankylosaurus helped his nervousness and feelings of melancholy as well as how the dinosaur's protective outer layer contrasted with his own thin body. Particular attention is given to his father's lesson on fighting as well as his concerns leading up to his wedding day.
