Comapre And Contrast

What I'm combing and contrasting is my book bystander to real life event I've witness. The book bystander is about a bystander kid a named Eric who does not speak up to the bully and just watches him. I was witness's a real life event in a bystander has step up and told the bully that his doing something wrong. This two has similarities because they both had kids who were bystander that were just watching. But they have a differen because one of the them step up and was not afraid to tell the bully that what he is doing is wrong (real life event ).

Six Innings

This is the book that I recently finished was called Six innings by James Perrel. It's about a championship baseball game and it's the best two team in town going against each other. Each team have the best players in town . One of the kids name is Nick and he is the best pitcher because he strikes a lot of people out. Also the best player in other team is Dylan who is the teams best pitcher.
 The point of view for this story is a kid named Sam he is also the announcer of the game . He also played baseball but his team lost. In page 5 it say " I wish I played in the game but I'm still part of it ." This is showing that the point of view of Sam. He as a announcer is saying who is up to bat . In the book I'm page 36 it says " leading off the top of the second inning it's shortstop carter Harris." This is Sam saying this for what he is seeing.

New Years Resolution

My new year resolution is to get more sleep. This is because I never get enough to sleep and I'm always tired during school . Also I almost always get late to school. I probably daily I only get 6 hours of sleep. I would love to get at least 9 to 10 hours.

Amulet

  The book I read during the winter break is " Amulet (Book One) " and it's a graphic novel. This book is about a family that unfortunately lose their father in a car crash and they have to continue there life's in a new house. The new house has some obstacles that the daughter will have to face just to save her family. She and her brother are given some powers that will help them defeat there obstacles.  
   I like this book because it has a conflict that is a conflict that may be solved in many different ways. I can connect with this because once I had a conflict that I could have been solved in many different ways. I had conflict in where I had enough ways to solve this conflict but I didn't know what way to solve it. For example the conflict that I had was I didn't finish an assument in school and I didn't have to time to finish it. So I ask my friends for advice for what to do and they gave me many different options to solve my problem. So I choice the easiest way to solve my conflict. In page 70 her brother is stuck and a little alien looking creature is about to attack him but she doesn't know what to do and she knows she how to save him but she's not sure about it and she choices to use her necklace that will help save his brother. This shows that to solve her conflict she had different ways to solve it but she choice one way to her conflict of saving her brother. I think I can connect with the conflict in the story with the conflict I have solved.
