She also thought it was very emotional and full of very happy points as well as some very sad ones.<br /><br />Anna noticed that Dave Pelzer writes the book as if he was back reliving everything instead of as if he is just retelling it. She also noticed that he writes very descriptively about his feelings which allows the reader to see things through Dave's point of perspective.<br /><br />I think Anna picked a very good passage from the book. It really gives the reader a good idea of the types of hardships Dave had to go through, and it also gives us a good preview of the writing style.<br /><br />Anna's review is similar to others I have read but I think it is especially well-written and gives us a lot of details.<br /><br />I would definitely consider reading it because I read "A Child Called It" and "A Man Named Dave" which are the first and third books and I liked both of them as well.melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05314856509717560458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29804556610642573.post-67013554300916266732010-01-11T13:40:32.719-08:002010-01-11T13:40:32.719-08:00Overall, Anna thought the book was very interestin...Overall, Anna thought the book was very interesting.

Anna's overall impression of this book is that unlike most nonfiction she reads, it was very interesting, and had many emotional high and low points.<br /><br />2. She noticed that the author writes the events in present tense, and describes his feeling so well, you begin feeling them, too.<br /><br />3. I think this a really interesting passage. It makes you feel his sadness for leaving, along with worry for his brothers. It shows the writng style really well.<br /><br />4. The format of Anna's review was very similar to the others that I read, but hers gave you a good idea about what the mood is throughout the story.<br /><br />5. I would consider reading this because I have already read A Child Called It, and this sequal sounds very interesting.nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08287952054760236226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29804556610642573.post-68672222828769636262010-01-07T15:27:19.401-08:002010-01-07T15:27:19.401-08:001.The reviewer's overall impression of the boo...1.The reviewer's overall impression of the book was that it was full of sadness and some happieness.<br />2.The reviewer noticed that that author really describes the main characters feelings.<br />3.The reviewer did pick an interesting passage from the book that summed up what the main character was feeling.<br />4.This book review is very detailed and interesting.<br />5.

The reviewer's overall impression of this book was that it was touching and brought her through an emotional rollercoaster called David's life.<br /><br />2). She noticed that the writing style was unique meaning that he wrote it as if he was reliving what was occuring, but not like a flashback.<br /><br />3). The passage was good, I thought it was deep and emotional.<br /><br />4). This book review is similar to others I've read, but I get a real sense of the book.<br /><br />5). I most likely wouldn't be reading this book. It's more of a matter of preference, because it sounds depressing and I don't think that I would enjoy it.Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04161537630497879952noreply@blogger.com
