Struts & Frets

    I have been reading this book call Struts & Frets by Jon Skovron and its a really good book. But when i continue to read the book i realize that the author was like the guy in the book. He mustve love music soo much that he created the book to describe himself. What does it feel like to like music and fail on every subject? I think it feels horrible to be that kind of person. I think i dont want that personlality to be with me. Its too bad for you.


    Also when i read this book, the person in the book also has a mystery for his song. He can't remember it. Most people forget their things like for example, i forgot my phone in my locker, but im sure it's safe. Why do people do this? Do they do this on purpose for an excuse? Thats all i want to know. some people say its a excuse but i dont take it. The authors life reminds me of my life when i forget somethings. The authoer did not want to show his life, but wanted to show his personality and his feelings.


    I think i can connect to the author, because when he was a kid, he had many problems and so did i. I get now, i just realize that your just one person with one or two personalities and no one can change it, because you just got to accept  who you are no matter what people tell you if youre dumb or smart. I just have to accept that for now, but when i grow older my ways of life will change and i have to accept it too. That's what people were trying to tell me. You just got to face your way of life no matter what people say, because it doesn't matter what people think. You're you and people see it, but can't change it. Thats the real message.

why i care about freedom

       Freedom may be more than just a word. You see i'm making a picture book for childrens call superheros vs zombies and the meaning of the story is "Freedom is worth fighting for". Most people don't even care about freedom, some do, but will that change your mind about how freedom is or isn't important to you? Are there certain things we should know about freedom? Some people say yes, because it's more than just a word and some people say no, because it's only a word. You have to make a desicion about your opinion and your meaning to freedom. If you read my book then you might understand.



        In my picture book i decided to put freedom to teach little kids, but i still wonder... what's its real meaning? i dont know yet, but when i do then i could tell the childrens so they will understand. In order to care about freedom you really need to know not to understand it, but to love it. People love freedom, but they change their mind when freedom is in their lifes. Freedom changed people lifes back then. It made them a success, maybe not. Do you like freedom? Do you care about freedom? I think you should change your mind. You decide, but right now you should think fast.


        I get it now. Freedom is more than just a word and it's a method that all of us can use. It doesn't matter if it controls us, but it will change our lifes and make us better people. We will know more about it and will love it too, maybe not. Freedom is in the world and can't be washed away by nobody.

What is freedom?

       I have been doing a picture book for little kids showing what freedom is. When i continue writing the book, i said hey what does freedom really mean? I want to know more and focus on it just alittle bit about the true meaning about freedom. This word sounds so powerful that it changed people's lifes. Is it a word? A meaning to people? When someone says "I'm free" does it mean that it's just one thing or two? Most people can't answer this question, but you decide the answer to see what freedom means to you like my picture book. Freedom can't be used for something like power. "I stand there waiting for the words and went it comes to me, it releases me as i heared those 4 words, "I'll give you freedom".

       In my picture book, I'm writing about a fiction story with a non-fiction word. Kids may understand it or not, but it's important to show or describe freedom so when the kids grow up they will know the true meaning. Basically my telling to those kids is "freedom is worth fighting for". My story is just about a superhero who fights zombies and tries to give people freedom. I mean imagine you could go back in to time and see what freedom was in the old times and how it affected many people like slaves, but do you think it sounds like a dangerous word? I mean it sounds like a powerful word, but most people can't handle it. Look what people accomplished, look what freedom did to us.

        I think the word freedom is a powerful changing word. I think it will help us someday. Freedom is a word that someone will give you when you deserve it like a present. It can't be destroyed by other humans, but we can use it. Free is just one thing, but the next thing you know is that it's a life changer. It means that when someone uses it, use it carefully and wisely or else you can't get it back. I might have a different "in my own words", but when you think of it, you might think it the wrong way or not. Freedom is not a play thing, but when it gets serious, i'll know its action. Just imagine, will you want freedom and get serious with it?

how issues are the same thing in the book as the real world

     Many books have an issue and so does the real world. A lot of people say that most can connect to us and the books for a reason. Many people say that life isn't fair and so does books too. That's because they are not handling it like for example say someone was reading a book right? But they can't read it, because it has strong language or bad influence. What I'm saying is that most people can't handle there problems and so does people in a book. I'm reading a book called "Exit here". Basiclly it's a boy who has problems like drinking or using drugs, but he can't stop. Now he has a problem to solve.
     If I'm correct then you must have problems too. I have a problem, playing video games, but will it stop me now? No, but when I'm older yes. Most people can't solve their problems and are trying to find out what can stop it before it leads them to danger. Books can be the same as us people, but we can't be as them. They can be like us when they have problems, girlfriend and boyfriend issue and etc. We can't do there stuff, because it might lead us all to danger and most people like to copy other people, but remember......
   copying other people will lead you to nowhere and danger

exit here and us

          Mostly us people have trouble with our problems, because what i am reading now is call exit now. This book is basiclly about Travis who has alot of problems than his friend Kyle who has way more drug problems than Travis. Travis problems are that he likes drinking which he cant stop, drugs and hooking up. Travis wanted to stop but cant. We all have a problem that we can not stop, but some people say that it can kill you inside. It's like you really want to stop it but it stops you from doing it. It's call addicting which most people have like using drugs, or playing too much video games, and drinking. It's not okay to become addicted to something, because it can ruin you.
           Well you're probably wondering am i addicted to something? well yes i am addicted to watching t.v. too much and playing video games. I really like it, but most people say it's not good. Well i kinda agree with it, but i dont think i can stop. It's not a diesase, but most people have this. Some people can stop some can't. Like smoking. Why do you think people try to quit smoking? Because they are addicted to it and can't stop. Same thing with drinking too. And as i said, it's not a diesase.

social actions

            Friends, familys, neighbors, there have been trouble across the whole country and they need our help. We may be poor or rich but it doesnt matter; We have other people that are the same too. This reminds me when Haiti had there earthquake in january and now they lost there homes, jobs, and a couple of there family members. We helped Haiti with there problems and i think its time to help more people than just Haiti. We may or may not care for other people, but we have to help them. Knowledge and thinking helps us with problems.
            Maybe someday when we have destructions the other people willcome and help us too. Its important to help people, because then someday we can get help too its like if you need help doing homework or need help in a subject and people will help you. Many people dont get help from other people, because they are too lazy or they just dont care. In the song World of Fire the artist told me and inspired me when she actually made a song about helping the poor and how we can help them. Even if it takes a week, help is on the way.
           We all know that some people care about the poor. World of Fire was made for people to see what it feels like to be that poorish way. The artist knew that Haiti had an earthquake so she made a song to tell people and show people the poor. Well i think we should all just get along and do whats right for the world even if we dont care.

superhero life

    even though superheros can be fake, they will be in the world. We all have something to think about when it comes to superheros like rescuing, sacrifices and hiding secret identity. I feel that some people can be be superheros or not even though they have good talent, because its a big responsibilty for saving the world. This reminds me of when i have to go to school and do my homework; thats every childs responsibilty. Watchmen was a great success, because the superheros there had there own task and every person has a task too. But know our world/task is different from theres. I enjoy there superhero life and say hey, i could be like this too, but all i need is skills and creation, because every superhero has there own name. But now i have to stick to my old life; a person who can think well.

E.B. White in my own Opinion

  Animals, Imagination, real world, E.B. White made it into his book Stuart Little and Charlotte's Web. First he made his ideas and put it into the book and the characters are trying to describe it and giving the reader examples of how he feels. Many people can see this in books, movies or T.V. shows. In my opinion i think E.B. White liked his ways and nevered reverted to old dumb ideas, but we all knew that making these books were a hit. Making these ideas will lead you to somewhere good and E.B. White followed it. It reminds me when i dont have ideas, but can brainstorm for excellent ways and leads to the steps of how E.B. White got his books sold alot.

Stuart Little

 When i first read the book, i really liked it. Then i saw the movie, it was really good, but then i forgot about it for 6 years and now guess what? Im rereading it and its bringing back my memories. E.B. White really put his ideas for animals and his imagination into 1 book or make that 2, because he also made Charlottes Web. I know that rereading or rewatching something that you forgot about brings back your memories. E.B. White also wanted the reader to think and see his opinions and how he putted into the book. I really think if i could be be E.B. White, i could set my mind and think like a expert and put my ideas and opinions into the book.
