Book 2 consists of Part Three, THE BOOK. It's a critique of everything imaginable in contemporary society, and organized from a collection of letters, essays, short stories, rhymes, editorials, proverbs and miscellaneous prose. There is something entertaining and/or mentally stimulating in here for everyone. The speaker is the book itself - a former tree in the forest whose fate was to be logged, made into paper and assembled as a book, thereby gaining the desired opportunity to speak his mind to humans. When Mister Book (Jahthra's name for the speaker) is finished voicing his opinions, the narrative is once again taken over by Jahthra and Sprout as their story continues.
