The book I chose to read for the 2nd marking period of the trimester is "A Child Called It". I chose this book, because it looked interesting to me. I wanted to read about a person who overcame his severely tough childhood, and lived to tell his amazing story. Also, I had heard about the book before from my family members, and they all said it was a great book, but I never got the chance to read it myself. I also enjoyed the YouTube video that was shown in class of this book. I think this book could inspire me to become a better person and help other people more than I have before, which was the author's goal of this book. I am looking forward to English class for the final marking period of the trimester because of this book, and I hope to take a lot from this book.
