Free Response!

           The incident that I remember from past reading is when I read the book Push.  Push is a book based of off the movie Precious. The movie Precious is a hard movie to get though just like the book is. The book to me is kind of harder to get though than the movie. I say that because when u watch the movie even though your physically seeing it, when u read the book to me it’s more detailed and it’s in your mind mentally. The one incident I remember was when her mom was fighting with her and was throwing things at her while she had her baby in her arms. To me that was kind of unnecessary because she could’ve hurt the child. Another incident was when she had another child by her father. I don’t know how any father could look at their child that kind of way. That I think is what really made her mom not like her. Throughout the book everybody picked on her no matter where she was. If I was in her shoes I wouldn’t know what to do. I would just want to be by myself or find somebody that actually cared about me. One more incident that I remember was when she went to an alternative school. Going to a new school is challenging for everybody. But all along I think that’s where she needed to be in the first place because everybody accepted her. The teacher even recognized her while she was there. I think that everybody should read the book because even though it’s a rough book it makes u think and know that it’s always somebody out there that’s worse off than you.

  1. Actually, the movie came after the book. I loved in this post how you explored the differences between "reading" a book and a movie.
