Introduction: The Nook Family

   Do you enjoy watching shows such as Family Guy, American Dad, The Simpsons, King of the Hill, or South Park? If so, I recommend you read this collection of short stories!

   The Nook Family is a short-story collection about a lazy American man named Steven Nook. Now Steven  Nook is a lazy white American in his late thirties. He drinks up to fifteen cans of beer every day, gets a hangover every weekend, and sleeps with twenty women every month. However, no one must underestimate the obnoxious, inconsiderate drunkard. Steven Nook is also a Harvard graduate with an IQ of 220, and is a member of the nation’s most valued company, known as the Institute. He is an extreme genius who, along with his colleagues at the prestigious Institute, has turned America into the most modernized top-tier nation in the world. Oh, and on top of that, he is seven feet tall.

   And the rest of the Nook family are just as extraordinary. Steven's wife, Milana Nook, is a silver-haired physician at the Institute-owned hospital. She, too, is also a Harvard graduate who received her PhD at the age of 22. His 16 year-old daughter, Emily, may look and act like a ditzy, spoiled Barbie girl, but she's ranked number one for each of her high school years. His 10 year-old son, Max, is no different from Steven Nook himself-- he is obnoxious, lazy, and a troublemaking daredevil whose outstanding grades have been the only reason why his school has not expelled him for his horrendous pranks. 

   The Nooks are no different from the Simpsons, the Griffins, or the Smiths. They are just as dysfunctional as any average American family. The only exceptions are their surprisingly high income, intelligence and career success.
