Jack Gantos: Hello. My name is Jack Gantos. It kind of rhymes with verbose. Gantos, verbose. When I was a kid, my nickname would sometimes be Toast, but that does not rhyme with Gantos. Hope this straightens everything out for you all, and next time I see you, you go, "Oh, that's Jack Gantos, as in verbose."
