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"
