My Favorite Book

By Anonymous
This book is called “Solo” by Kwame Alexander with Mary Rand Hess. This book talks about how this boy named Blade Morrison, it was a family of rockstars. His father Rutherford was a drug addict, his little sister was storm. As the story continues he and his girlfriend have a problem, Chapel’s parents don’t like Blade because he is apart of the Morrison Family, but in actuality he’s not like his father. The book will show you what it means as the story progresses.  My favorite part is when Blade finally stands up to Chapel’s parents and confesses how much he loves her. This part truly shows that he’ll do anything to stay with Chapel. Another part is Blade’s mother had died when he was at a very young age which is devastating, and all of a sudden his whole life he’s been having these dreams about a black widow. Blade believes it represents his mother trying to send a message to him. Blade would have these weird dreams about a black widow. Blade is trying to find out, why are all of these things happening to him why was he chosen. Later in the story he finds out something that changes his whole perspective and explains why he’s different from the rest of the Morrisons. To find out what the secret is, and more about that black widow, I advise you to read this book. And also if or when you read the book, could you tell me your favorite part? I love reactions to books.

My Identity

By Anonymous
I have many things that define me. Not by just looks but by my culture and family and lifestyle. Of course I am black/African American. I have a long history of bad things and good things that has happened to my culture. My family is Christian and we love to go to church. Our family is actually known and for generations passed down to sing. We are very spiritual and when I'm over my mom's house we usually listen to gospel music. I am a brother of 2 and an uncle of 3. My brother and sister both have kids, Daylena and DaS'hown. And my brother has 1 child that is a girl; Shonti. And my sister has 2 boys, Joshua who turned four on september 18th and my other nephew Jordan who turned 1 year old in July 21st. My mom is a really great cook, but she inspired me to want to be a professional cook, I want to learn how to cook better than her. Even though I am only 13, I still have jobs like most 13 year olds have a job to be students. But I have my own jobs probably a lot of people...

Outsiders Connection to Another Article

By Anonymous
Healing ‘Brick City’: A Newark Doctor returns home relates to The Outsiders in different ways. In both the article and the book they resemble heroism and lots of struggle, loss, and sacrifice.     “My past wasn’t always perfect. I grew up in a single-parent home with five siblings [in a] drug-infested community”. This relates to The Outsiders because, Johnny gave back to be apart of tomorrow. He risked his life in a burning church, to save children. He was a brave hero, and the the man gave back by also saving lives as a doctor, and his mother’s words of the wiser set him up for life to help his community.     “Through my mother’s way of handling life, she always made sure that I understood the need to give back.... She always said, ‘Once you make it, you have to come back and help other people.’ Too often, in Newark especially, I see so many professionals that do make it out — they don’t return. And I think that’s a crime in itself.... You have to have some soci...

Interesting Comparison From the Book to The Movie (The Outsiders)

By Anonymous
There is always a difference between a book and the remake in a movie, just with the outsiders it has many similarities and differences. One similarity would be in both the movie and the book they would meet Cherry Valentine in the theatre. Another similarity is when johnny kills Cherry Valentine’s boyfriend, Bob, which plays a huge part in the story. Next the church caught on fire which, Dally, Ponyboy, and Johnny all saved kids. Second to last Johnny dies a few days later because of the fire and it sends a few people crazy. Lastly Darry also gets shot up by the police because he robbed a store, and pulled out his gun on purpose, he wanted to die because of his best friend Johnny, he didn't know what to do without him. The few similarities from the book to the movie, the big similarities.     Finally for the differences, there is always a difference no matter what, everybody makes mistakes. When Ponyboy goes to the theatre to get some popcorn with Cherry, in the book there...
