When i started school i was acting up and never wanted to do any work or homework and my grandmother had to come to the school everyday. I never really cared about reading and writing because i wasn't really good at it, so i never really worked on reading and writing.

Like I said before nobody deserve to be treated like this or to be neglected medical care. They are just slowly killing off this beautiful culture. This book saddened me very much.

Now and again it would be stories that were passed on from her adolescence and different times she would get a book, for example, the three little pigs and a plenty of other youngsters ' books, to read loudly as I nodded off. Since I reflect upon it, there was almost always a good to the story, whether it was trustworthiness, dependability, or obligation.

As I became older, the books got more immersed, particularly when I went to class. From the very first day I ever went to class, till the last day of high school, and now into college there has not been one day that I haven 't needed to read something.

I think the school’s solution to the problem was not good. Like what it says in paragraph 3 in I am real where it says, “I want you to know, too, that my publisher and I have done absolutely nothing to exploit the disgusting news from Drake.” Even when the school burned the book he said that he did not exploit them like he mentions in this quote.
