    The most difficult book i've ever read at is The Child Called It...I overcame its challenges because I got really into the book and made a "metal movie" which helps me understand the texts easier....

    - The child called it series.
    It made me realize how lucky i am and how unfortunate some other chidren may be and the book taught me to be more respectful to my parents.

    Tears of a Tiger put a big impact on my life. I think about things before i act, and the consequences i know i have to handle if i make a wrong decision. Reading that book really set a impact because i will never drive intoxicated. Just because I wouldnt want put my family threw the pain , i wouldnt want to end my life on something I could have avoided. I also have siblins & i want to set a good example for them.

    My all time favorite memory of reading at home was when I read a Goosbump book. I was a little younger at the time and the book totally creeped me out. For the first time i was drawn into the book and couldnt stop reading. From that day on I have been interested in horror books and read them very often.

    a book that had a tremendous impact on me was the twilight saga because i got so attached to it. It made me cry at times because it was sweet. i ussually dont read many books but when i read twilight i got so hooked on it i read all the book in two days and they have like 700 pages each.

    The book "How not to be popular" made a huge impact on my life. The book's message is saying to not judge people by what they wear or what group you hang with. I know personliy i hate being labled.
