Assignment 1

1.     My favorite book is POP; POP is about a young high school football star, Josh, who thinks he knows everything about football. While playing football with his friends in the park, the ball lands at the feet of an old, yet muscular old man. He whips the ball back at Josh, faster than anything he’s ever seen. The man’s name is Charlie. Charlie is a retired NFL linebacker who played football for the chargers in the 80’s. But there’s something wrong with Charlie, he has Altztimers. This was caused by too many hits to the head. However Charlie still remembers his playing days very well. Josh spends a lot of time with Charlie, learning things he didn’t know existed about football, and how it should be played. Josh’s lessons learned from Charlie not only made him a good player, but an even better teammate.

2.     I gravitate to realistic fiction or Non-Fiction
