If sizeof(sizeof) does not stand for the allocated size of the string but is meant literally, then either the book was utter crap or you misunderstood it. I suggest to read the GNU libc info pages instead, the explanations there are clear. sizeof(a-pointer-to-char) is the size of the pointer, usually 8 or 4. The second fgets() argument should be the allocated size of the string (or a smaller positive number).
