The book really made me think of all the stuff that I take for granted, and how I should be more appreciative and how there are people with less than me who are just as happy if not happier. If you’re not a fan of books that are sad but shocking and at times harsh because you think they’re boring or they don’t fulfill you’re interests, then I would still recommend you try reading the book because it’s very intriguing but I can’t guarantee you’ll love it, and if you do enjoy books like that then I say it’s a must read! Such a great true

I feel this book was made for those who are having a hard time in their lives. This book may show them that the hard times don't always last. it may also show them that they are not the only ones in a certian type pain.

A substantial part of my childhood involved frequent visits to the public library. I remember how my mom and I would visit a serene and quiet library every Monday night at around 8:00 p.m. after we ate dinner.

I am thankful for those experiences, since those books have contributed to a jovial childhood, and helped shape my perspective for life.

Reading this book has made me think twice about a lot of my ways of thinking. It has made me reevaluate many of my thought processes about people and life. It has shown me great ways of staying positive and projecting that positiveness on to others.

It seems as if I was with them the entire them and I felt every happy or heartbreaking moment
