A very old man with enormous wings/ Reading

I liked the short story "A Very Old Man With Enormous Wings". It was a very good story, but it was a tad bit confusing. I could follow the story, but I didn't understand the plot line. I didn't like it when they locked him up in a cage. Just because he isn't like you doesn't mean you should treat him differently.

A(n e) book

There isn't nothing that embarrassing in my literacy  narrative that is that embarrassing; besides me learning how to read when I was 7. I haven't said anything bad about someone and used their name so I think the names are fine in my paper. I think I might want to proofread it again, but I'm not sure. I think I should have made it more descriptive. I think if we didn't have to do MLA formatting, but I knew what it was I would have used it. It keeps it a lot more organized. I also think I would put some pictures to help with the visual elements.

Free Writing 3

          Yesterday, I went to my Dad's house for lunch. My grandparents where there along with my sister, my brother, his fiancĂ©, and their baby. We had salmon, it was ok. We then watched the Ohio vs Louisville game on ESPN. I spent time with my grandparents who I see every couple years.

         After that, my niece got sick. She had a fever. My future sister-in-law said that it has happened ever since she started daycare. She took a nap and apparently was better. Her fever went down to regular temperature and everything was ok.
Reading Response 3

I am still reading Drive By Larry Bird. There still isn't much to say. It is an autobiography. There isn't a lot you can say about an auto-biography.
