my independent reading book is starting off really well although i cant give a universal theme yet since my book is based on lots of short stories about different kids and different sports and they each in every story have different backgrounds but still are able to have some things in common maybe its nothing big maybe its something very little that connects them but they do have lot in common and i also have somewhat in common with both short stories Ive read so farto have a determination drive to not want to be a runner up but be a champion to experience accomplishment and not think i wish i could be or why cant i be like so i do have connections with the book.
a quote form the book is "that boy that ran past the house everyday was a champion. he would know what seperates winners from perpetual runner-ups. and if peter could learn that well then and if his mothers happy then that means she will say yes"

ultimate sports

this is a god book and i can relate to it because peter really love playing piano but then it became a job and he was pushe to keep on playing everyday for an hour or two it came to the point where playing a piano was the worst part of his day and he wanted to join sports cause he sees a runner Kevin running and he sees a champion in him not a runner up i can relate to peter because i used to love basketball i had to play it but then people started to expect to much of me and i lost the dedication to play for fun and it just became a chore something i had to do not what i wanted to do

independent reading book

i am reading about hoop dreams it is in a good perspective of the kid that is getting recruited and telling us about his life and how he plays were he lives and is a really cool documentary especially since i know how the main characters feel and how they have passion for the great sport basket ball although i may not know how it feels to be committed like they are but its a good book.i also think that its really cool in the book that the kid got discovered and is going to play in his heros highschool and live up to the reputation at mashall highschool.but it is cool since i was in my highschool basketball team and gonna be able to connect yeeeessssssssssssss

hoop dreams

i started reading hoop dreams today and i like it already it connects to my surrounding on basketball and i can feel and know what there talking about when he does a specific move and when hes using his strength and powering to the court its really cool on how they use it i cant wait to read a basketball game i hope when i read it i can image how there playing and see the game in my head

life of pi

it started off real slow but where i am reading at know is actually really intense and getting me at the edge i have so much wondering just like pi does and i want to hurry up and find out if he was the only one to survive the boat crash and if the coyote decides to eat attack him like how he did to the injured zebra and the tuna or orange but right know its really good and very intense hope it stays like this through out the book

book talk

the book talk was very nerve racking and hard to go through but when you were actually used to it the words just flew out and it got less tense and i was able to answer all of the questions and did my expectations so i think that the book talk overall was good and i did what i could hopefully it was good enough.

where the red fern grows

finish it very intense, it will get you teary eye i did and this was my second time reading it and i think its the top 3 books Ive read in my life its great and i strongly recomend it i give it a 5 out of 5
