Why I want to reread You Don't Know Me

    You Don't Know Me by David Klass, There so many reasons that I would like to reread this story. I wanted to reread this story from the start of this school year. I just couldn't find it i asked my last year Ela teacher she said someone had it already I looked in the library of my current Ela class no luck. Although i have many reasons of wanting to read this book i can only remember 3 and those 3 are.
    One reason that i want to read this book is because I need to refresh and restart what happened in that epic story. I personally think that when i reread it helps me find more details and help me understand the settings, characters and conflicts. Rereading also helps me write more essays about the story. I reread almost all my books and it really does help me to understand more about the story and even help me right a more interesting, bold blog post.
     The second reason i want to reread this story is because how drama filled the story was. I loovvvvve stories with so much drama and sadness. It makes me my emotions change rapidly. The more the drama the more i put myself in that situation, the more i put my self in the situation makes me feel bad for the character. But sometimes feeling for the character makes me feel terrible because of how easy i have and how hard they have it.
     The last reason i want to reread the story is because it is a true story. I'm not sure why but when it comes to an interesting true story i will not hesitate to read it. Although memoirs can get very boring but this memoir never did! Well at least I did not remember any boring parts.
   Therefore Rereading is a good way to understand more about the character, setting and conflict. These three reasons are the main reasons i would like to read You Don't Know Me by David Klass. I hope that i can find the book. I also hope that i will learn lots and more of what is in this story.

 I have read I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore. There was a couple sentences that had lots of information but the one that was the most packed was on page 165 paragraph 1. "The First SnowFall comes two weeks later A slight dusting, just enough to cover the truck with a fine powder... we've worked everyday without fail, through the cold weather and the rain and now the snow." I feel like this sentence tells me alot about the Setting, the main character and Four.

    The reason i feel that this loaded sentence was a beautiful way to explain the is because its very poetic. It explains the snow in a bright, calm, white, cold. When other books explain the setting its usually like: One morning in a hot day in the kitchen (BORINGGG). The way Pittacus Lore explains this setting is amazing it makes me actually feel what they feel and imagine my self where they are.It makes me want to bottle up this sentence in a jar and listen to it on and on and on like a new pop song. 

    The reason that i feel like this is a loaded sentence because it explains four.  Four is a very teenage character which makes me and other people that are in the range of 10-15 relate to him, One thing we all have in common is we love snow! Four is not a person who has seen alot of snow. All the places he had moved to were hot dry places and this is his first experience with snow. What i think Pittacus is trying to do is make that sentence packed with beautiful, poetic words but at the same time make it a description that a teenager would say.
    Therefore the loaded sentence above^^ (In the blue) is a packed sentence that describes alot about the setting and the main character Four. The poetic and explanatory words describes the setting clearly and beautifully. The teenage like words and feeling helps me know that its Four who is seeing look at it and describing the winter snow. Honestly this is the most interesting sentence in the book. I feel like i have to reread the book for the second time to refresh and and find more details and interesting parts that i can write more about on my blogposts! :) 

    I have read Riley W's Blogpost called "What it is about Mr.Potter". This blogpost was about the book Harry potter. I have never read any read any Harry potter book but from reading Riley's post i felt that the series sounds very very interesting. I might even pick up a Harry potter when i'm finished with my book!

    What i liked about this post was that Riley was how fun he made it. He joked around and he made it seem like he was having fun while typing the post. What i didn't like about Riley's post is he connected to his life to much. It was all Riley and no potter. I wished he just explained the story a little. I wish this because it would have helped me understand the book more and maybe even like it better.

    I have never read any other post by Riley but from reading this i might just read all of them! This post reminded me of the series Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I'm not sure why it reminded me of that book but i was thinking that its because there these books are similar in a way. Both have to do with a boy that has magical powers, Need to save the world Blah, blah, blah that kind of stuff. What it also reminded me of was the movie harry potter. Which made me feel stupid because i have seen all the movies but not the books.

    Riley's post about the book harry potter was engaging. I liked it. The post made me want to read the harry potter series and i might read it soon. There was some parts in the post i did not like and there were some parts that i did like. Most of the parts i did like, I liked the way it was written, I liked the way he connected the book with him self and i liked the way he mentioned our school. What i didn't like was he did not explain the story line of Harry Potter which i wanted to learn about.

Text resistance and Movie resistance

    Text resistance and Movie resistance can be very similar but at the same time different. I go through resistance through both. 
    Movie resistance and Book resistance are different because of how simple it is to keep away from the resistance. Movies are hard to resist from the parts you want to resist because you can miss alot of what is happening Books are easier to resist what you wish, simply skip the page or just the paragraph, without missing to much of the story.
Another way that movie resistance and book resistance is different is because of how you picture it. Movies you actually see, hear it. Books you have to picture/imagine it and every one's imagination is different from the others.
    Movies and Book resistance can also be similar. They can be similar because they feeling it gives you. Movies might add some music to show the feelings and books will add many words or pictures but yet they will feel the same way. I feel that if i read a book and there is a part I resist, i will feel the same way with the movie. Its like two different people mixing to different formulas but getting the same results.
    Therefore movies and books are different. Also similar. Movies are hard to keep away from the part you resist and books sometimes are easier. Movies are easier to imagine what is happening, and books are harder. There also similar. You can feel the resistance in a movie and feel it the same way as a book.

A Child Called "It" by Dave Pelzer

    This book was so depressing and interesting that I have to make a blog post on it. A very intense book about a young boy who has been abused by his mother. This book was touching and heartbreaking to hear these stories about this boy being abused by his own mother and his older brothers to watch. 
    One reason the book was sad to me was Dave's dream. His dream was for his father to stick to his promise which is to save him from this hell hole of a house. But it never came true. Sometimes when someone makes me a promise i would get sad about them breaking it, but a promise that serious would be terrible to break.
    Another reason why this book i thought this book was extremely sad. Is because it was a true story. I know many people have experience abuse but not all of then experienced writing a book about it. This story was sad to begin with but knowing it was a true story made me beyond sad. Sad because this little innocent boy has experience beatings that no kid should ever be beaten. A spank or a timeout is one thing. But making your child eat poop, drowning him, smacking him poisoning him, Starving him and not loving him is a different story. A complete different story. 
    The last reason i thought this book was sad was because no one has done anything to help him for a long time. The teachers knew, some adult suspected it. But he was helped many years later. Which is terrible timing. But a great way to make a dramatic story about it. Noticing in alot of book/movies that usually when some one is getting abused it takes them a long to  for them to express what is happening to them.
    Therefore the book A child called "it" is a very sad story.It is sad because Dave pelzer (The author) is the main character (Meaning its a true story). Its also sad because Dave yes been abused in the book for many years and no one was there to help him. The main reason it was sad because of his dream which didn't come true. 

A character that I admire

    A character that i admire would be Percy Jackson from the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series. Percy is the main character who is a demi god trying to save the world and find out his prophecy. I choose Percy as a

character that i admire  because i can relate to him. I also chose Percy because he is very hard to relate to.

     One reason that i can relate to Percy Jackson is his Leadership. Percy has to be a leader in order to succeed his quests. I feel like I'm a leader out of my friends. I make the right choices and Lead us to a safe path (For Now On). Another reason i can relate to Percy Jackson is his Braveness. Percy is a demigod which means he has powers and stronger then normal people (meaning humans) he has to fight big, ugly green, tall, evil monsters. 

Sometimes I feel I do to. But my monsters are not green and evil tall or big. My monsters are challenges, and problems which I'm sure everyone has to face their "Monsters" at least once in life. The last reason that i can relate to Percy is his love for the sea.  love the sea ever since i was younger. Percy can control the sea so he has no choice but to like the sea.

    I also admire Percy Jackson because i cannot relate to him. One reason I can't relate to Percy is because he is a demi-god with magical powers. I know for a fact that no one can relate to that part of Percy's life. I also cannot relate to Percy because his very immature. Percy doesn't know how to stop and listen sometimes. I feel that i am the opposite, One warning for me and that is enough. I notice all through out the book Percy gets warned once, he doesn't listen and he ends up in like a dark hole or about to get eaten by a cyclops or something. Another reason i can't relate to Percy is because of his reading problems. Percy has dyslexia and ADHD. which are serious problems that can effect your reading, writing and your movement. I definitely cannot relate to that because i never had a disorder or a reading problem. I never experience something like that.

     Therefore I can and can't relate to Percy Jackson. I can relate to Percy because his braveness, his leadership and his passion for the see. I can't relate to Percy because his immaturity, his powers and his ADHD/Dyslexia.
