This book was a hard read for me. I am sure it was hard for most people to because of the seriousness of this story. The violence was hard anyway to read about and as I was reading it just painted this horrible picture in my head and it is not something I would wantContinue reading “Blog 11”

This definitely was an interesting book but it was not my favorite. I am not much of a reader anyway so for me to go out of my way to read a book is rare. I enjoy a good mystery book and this book was good but I would not go out of my wayContinue reading “Blog 10”

“Aya: Life in Yop City” I did think it was kind of a difficult of a read. I think it was kind of difficult because the author just kept jumping around between characters and it was hard to follow sometimes but it was not terrible. It was about just one story but you had toContinue reading “Blog 9 10/20/2020”

Life of Yop City was definitely not what I was anticipating. Right out of the gate it was hitting us as the readers with important and hard situations. In the beginning I thought the book would start off with issues that children would deal with then teens and then adults but I was wrong. ItContinue reading “Blog 8 10/13/2020”

I enjoyed “Dare to Disappoint” but graphic novels are still hard for me to read because of all the writing being all over the page. It is kind of hard not reading left to right but up and down and side to side. I liked the message the book was putting out there though. IContinue reading “Blog 7 10/6/2020”

I enjoyed the reading of the “American Born Chinese” it was definitely an experience! I was not much of a graphic novel reader, so reading this was a little tricky at first. I did however catch on quickly. The way the book was written for sure made it easier to read. The range for readersContinue reading “Blog 6 9/30/2020”

The story I chose is “The Lion, the Hare, and the hyena”. This was a short story but I think it had a strong message behind it. It was basically short and to the point. A quick summary of this story is the lion got hurt badly and could not use his leg and startedContinue reading “Blog 4, 9/15/2020”

One theme we noticed was individuality. Throughout the stories we read in “The Tales of Our Abuelitas” and “Chinese Fables” it was evident that many stories reflected on the differences we each have. No matter who you are, we are all different living together in the same world. We should celebrate our differences and understandContinue reading “Blog 3, 9/11/2020”
