In this book I admired many of the authors personal qualities. My favorite personal quality of the author is that the author actually wrote a book about his childhood. The second quality I admired most about the author is when he was a child he went to church every Sunday of his life. I admired that he went to church every Sunday, because I believe that everybody should have a good relationship with whom ever they believe in. Those two qualities of the author are the ones that I admired most in the book.
I think that the community that the author lived in had some changes on his life. Some of the people that helped affect some changes in the authors life was the authors friends. The authors friends helped him a lot by hoping for him to win the election for president in his school. I also think that his parents had a lot to do with affecting some of the things in the authors life. For example, the author probably would not have his bike that he got for Christmas if his parents did not sacrifice going to the movies or going bowling, so that they could make sure their kids had most of the things they wanted. This is how the authors community had an affect on the authors life.
The fact that he was naturally talented gave him an advantage when becoming a writer. Some other reasons why he is such a good writer was because he was not the average kid, he was the kind of kid that paid attention in class, when all the other kids were fooling around. He was very dedicated to his school work. Further more he had a great imagination, and an even better writing ability to have the reader in suspense.
The Life Of Ghandi A Book Review
Mahatma Karam chand Gandhi was born in Porbandar, India, on October 2, 1869. Although his father was a chief minister for the maharaja of Porbandar, the family came from the traditional caste of grocers and moneylenders, (the name Gandhi means "grocer"). His mother was a devout follower of Jainism, a religion in which ideas of nonviolence and being a vegetarian are paramount. Gandhi stated that he ...
Some similarities when writing a book and playing sports is that you always have to be focused. Also you have to have a plan of action, and be ready to make a move. Some ways that are different is that when playing sports its more of a physical effort verses when your writing a book its more of a mental effort. Nevertheless both are very challenging but worth it in the end.
My favorite anecdote of the authors childhood is that he cared a lot about his school work, very much like I do. I also liked his passion for comic books, and cowboys. I liked that about him because he kept me interested and wanting to read more. I feel that other young boys, and girls who read this book could really benefit from it because it would inspire them to try harder.
The most significant change in the authors life was when he transitioned from a little boy who was consumed with comic books and cowboys, to an intellectual young man that became focused on sports and his studies. This is important in the story because it shows that when you get older you gradually change your interests in the things you have a passion for. The author showed this change over time. From reading this book I would definitely love to read another book by, Jerry Spinelli because he really makes you want to read the book in one day until you finish it.
