In the night, Gary was dreaming some strange things. Suddenly, something thumping, jerking, shaking... I was Harris. He waked him up and said “Get your butt out of there or Louie will get all the pancakes.” Gary never heard of who is Louie. He is an old bugger who lives here and works. Gary felt not only sleepy but also hungry. He got dress and walked to the table. He found out everybody was getting ready to eat. Louie wore a matted beard stuck with bits of dirt what looked like dried manure. All the people were watching the pancakes cooking. Harris ignored Gary, told him kept sitting with the fork in his hand. But before the plate hit the table, Louie learned forward like a snake striking and hit the stack of pancakes with fork. The whole stack went to Louie’s plate. The same thing happened seven or eight times. The entire stack was gone in ten seconds flat, and he was sitting again with his fork in his hand. At last, Gary just got a little bit pancakes. Harris took me to the farm. One they way, Harris gave Gary a cigarette which he stole from Louie. Gray had never rolled a cigarette before. Gary took a deep drag and inhaled. The effects were immediate. He gagged, chocked, and puked all what he ate. Harris shouted “You don’t know nothing, do you?” Harris retrieved the cigarette, brushed the burning off. He kept going. Gary tried to avoid every mud and manure. So he move very slow and then got lost. He was hit directly in the groin with such force that it lifted him of the ground, doubling him. He didn’t who it is. Acutely, it is a cow which called Vivian. He just felt the world ended in an explosion of white light.
It is so funny book. Gary just moved to the farm, and he doesn’t realize farmers’ life style. These farmers usually get up so early and eat so fast just like dogs. Gary couldn’t eat fast as them and he wants to sleep in the morning. Harris usually laughs at him. I think there will be some other funny things happen in this book. I will keep reading for fun.

Funny? It sounds like a horror story! He has to get up too early, then he doesn't get enough breakfast, and then he has to try smoking, and finally he is kicked in the groin by a cow!
Next time, write a much shorter summary, OK? You've included far too many details here.
