This was my banned book. It's about a boy who grew up poor and is having a chance to improve his life by competing in a contest through the OASIS.
Life is on their hands, Death is on their minds! This is about a boy who is on trail for murder and 12 jurors discuss his fate.
The book is called House on Mango Street. It is by Sandra Cisneros. I read this book because it was a requirement to and we had a project based on this book. My favorite parts about this book is probably all the little funny inappropriate comments and stories that were in the book. I favored those parts over most of the book because I like to laugh and listen to some fun stories. I see responsibility in this text in examples like when see gets her first job, or when she has to watch her brothers and sisters. There's also a lot of responsibility growing up and this book was based on the idea of coming of age. A lot of the stories in the book are about her have new experiences as she gets older and that takes some responsibility to handle. I would definitely recommend this to either a person who loves poetry and deciphering meaning or just a person who loves to hear cool stories full of culture. I might even recommend this book to a little girl so that she can get an understanding of growing up from her perspective.
My Adventure Book
This is my adventure book cover art that I made using Photoshop. I feel like I did a decent job on my adventure book, but I definitely could have done more. I am proud of the work I did do yet I am also displeased with myself, because I procrastinated on this assignment. The two things I'm most proud of in this project is my cover art and my future adventure vignette. I am most proud of these because they took me the longest time to make and I feel like they are the best work I did in this project. If I could go back and work on one thing, I'd definitely spend more time on the art. To me this is where I fell behind and procrastinated in. Also if would work on turning it on time.
