This is a thought-provoking letter written by Kurt Vonnegut opposing the idea of burning books of young children, in view of transforming the system of education in America.
Explanation:
In this letter, Vonnegut starts telling audience/readers the ideas that can have a negative effect, not only on the target person/individual, but also on a wider range because of its effect being new and historic.
Though in view of a change, Vonnegut argues that this act of burning books is not what we all should accept. In Paragraphs 7 and 8, when Vonnegut explains about how people feel it is their right to decide what their children must read, the author explains to them that it is true but doing that in an un-American way - harsh, impractical, ignorant manner can cause a negative impact for them.
In the next point of argument, author talks about how people/nations who didn't read books, didn't let ideas emerge among people fought wars. They created destruction all over world. The author clearly states that people/nations who read books have been a part of development, improvement and liberation.

I took the dog for a long walk. - simple
The dog ran happily through the park because he had been stuck in the house all day. - complex
He stopped to smell several flowers, and he chased a rabbit. - compound
Explanation:
<u>A simple sentence is constituted of a only one independent clause</u>.<u> It has a subject and a predicate, and it expresses a complete thought. </u>That is what we have in "I took the dog for a long walk."
<u>A complex sentence is formed by joining two clauses, one independent and the other dependent/subordinate.</u> <u>The dependent clause needs the independent one to make sense, since it does not express a complete thought on its own.</u> That is what we have in "The dog ran happily through the park because he had been stuck in the house all day." The subordinating conjunction "because" introduces the dependent clause.
<u>A compound sentence is formed by joining two independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction - for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.</u> That is what happens in "He stopped to smell several flowers, and he chased a rabbit." In this case, the conjunction is "and".
