Chewing Gum

My mum gave me a great idea for a kids book this afternoon. She said that when she was in the airport in Boston, waiting for the flight back down here to Chattanooga, she threw her gum away. Then she said she started feeling bad for her poor gum all discarded and thrown away. So she said that I should write a kids book following the life cycle of a piece of gum, from the factory to being thrown away. I think that's the greatest idea yet. Kids would love to read a book about that. Maybe someday I'll have time to research what actually happens to a piece of gum in its life time.
