The title of the book I read was FAHRENHEIT 451. The name of the author who wrote this great American novel is Ray Bradbury.

He also jumps around from where he is when he is going into describing things. For instance he may be acting as if he is describing the inside of his house from the outside but all of the sudden in practically the same sentence he is inside his house describing it to
