Life is Beautiful Review

                            Today we will be talking about Life is Beautiful which is about the Holocaust basically with these couple named Guido,Dora,Giosue, and There Uncle Leo go to a concentration camp. My favorite part to this movie was when Guido accidentally dropped the eggs on the guy Dora was engaged to and the  reason is just because it was very funny and it was my favorite part. What i learned from this movie is just seeing like how the concentration camps look like plus what there beds look like is just not good an that’s what’s i have learned in this movie. This movie did make me think this was how the Holocaust is and the reason for that is because all the things that happened in the movie is true and it seemed like it was real life. The people that were upstanders were Guido, and Doctor and the reason for this is because Guido was standing up and for everyone especially Giosue and the doctor really wanted to help Guido and it didnt happen so those were the upstanders. Now the bystanders for the movie are. The people in Italy because they didnt say anything about this to the people.

The Funniest Diary ever


        The book that Is gonna be talked about is Diary of a Wimpy kid by Jeff Kinney. This is the funniest diary the reason because this book is just really nice so hope you enjoy it.

        What this book is about this kid named Greg Heffley and he has a family of his mom, dad, and 2 brothers. Then he has his friends Rowley and what they do is go over to each other’s houses every day and hang out. So then the next thing is that he has all these friends in school, and he is really not a very good friend.
                   


                   The character that is have chose in the book is Greg Haffley the reason that it’s Greg is because, he is the main character in the story and he is the perfect person to talk about. So Greg Haffley is 15 years old and he is a freshman in high school. At home he has his Mom named Susan, a dad named Frank, and two brothers the older one is Rodrick and the younger one which is Manny.
That is Greg Haffley who is the main character in the diary of a wimpy kid.

                   The reason that I enjoyed this book is because of the way that the story went so they were at school and there is the cheese touch with the cheese then the thing to the school scenes and I just like it. My favorite part for me in the story is with the cheese touch. Because it is funny on how people don’t want to touch a piece of cheese, then they will stay away from you if you touch the cheese then the thing they called person who touched the cheese is the cheese touch.

Q3 Book Blog 1

Sports Illustrated The Basketball Book
Alexander Wolff
Sports
Date:1/29/18

                               When they talk about Michael Jordan and all the greats that played the game of basketball. The other thing that I enjoy is that is when it talks about the generation and the worst draft picks and best draft picks. The reason people should like this book is because


                              The character that I see in detail is James Naismith so the reason that it is because now if it was not for him there is no basketball. So for all this these players who would know where they would be with no basketball in the world. Now we just got to look up to this guy now just because, that were would we be without this guy.


                                The reason that I like this is because of the things that they say about the history of basketball and the existence. Now the history with the decades of every thing is in this book to giving a lot of description.

Here is a video of my favorite basketball player:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0BQKX_lszY

One word

My one word is Achieve, the reason that this is my word is because I want to achieve a lot of stuff like graduating in college, and going to the MLB. So that is why I just feel like, I need to take life serious and earn those achievements that i am targeting towards. The other reason is because I just don’t think that people in life just are not focusing in their life’s, and that is a problem to see that.
Now I really just want to explain to people that it is possible to you can basically achieve anything if you focus on them.

Satch and Me

*Title of book: Satch and Me
*Author of book: Dan Gutman
*Genre of book: Fiction

My favorite part of this book is… when they were at the negro league World Series when Satchel Paige. Took the mound for the monarchs against, the clowns then at the World Series. The Clowns had ran out of bullpen arms due to illness. Now from here the Clowns asked the crowd if they can pitch and flip was the one. So for me that was my favorite part of the book.

The main character in this book is flip because he was the one that went to the mound when they had no one. The next thing is that he was, the biggest fan of Satchel Paige like following him everywhere. From the negro league, To the playoffs to, the negro league World Series. It’s just that his name always got mention a lot because he’s the main character. So I personally think that flip is the main character.

Now the theme of the book is that, this kid who met one of the best ever. For the pitcher category and is being one of the kids who, is the followers for Satchel Paige. I would recommend this book to a friend because, it is a book about this kid who is on a baseball card adventure and now that he is with satch traveling watching games. He is basically his number 1 fan. The reason that I like this book is because, it’s a book that is about the negro league and how this kid was such a big fan of Satchel Paige and that he traveled every where satch basically to went to is how much he likes him and I like this book because it is an adventure.

Black Diamond

*Title of book: Black Diamond
*Author of book: Patricia C. McKissack and Fredrick McKissack, Jr
*Genre of book     Non Fiction

Hello and,today I will be telling you about a book I just finished reading which is. A book called Black Diamond, and it is about the, negro league and players so it’s a, very good book and hope you enjoy it.

This book is about…

            What this book is about is, that they had the negro league back then, and now they are looking at the people who were in the league and also the teams. They were as legendary as the people in the majors you know the old legends like Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Cy Young, and Honus Wagner, and players you know like Josh Gibson,Satchel Paige,Jackie Robinson,Willie Mays, and Willie Wells. Then they compared to the very good negro league teams to the, legendary mlb teams and you know, they treated black people so badly and, you know they are very good baseball players. So that was very bad back then and that’s basically what the book is about that, the teams and players were very good and compared to the legendary, mlb Teams and Players.

The Main Character is Jackie Robinson I feel is because he is the main character just because of what. They did to him and now you look back and it was so bad. He was in the negro league and everyone was so nice to him, and now if you look at it was because of the way they got treated back then. Now when he joined the mlb. He got treated like crap tried to hurt Jackie and that’s not right. Now it is way better because just that their race is.  Another thing is that, he was such a nice guy and a matter of fact that, he was so nice to any type of race plus it is such a great thing, that he was like
this because, some people have got to learn that there is great people around the world. Now I  think that this is a great person we are talking about. The reason I think that Jackie Robinson is my main character is because, he was the one who did all of this and set it right and I just think he is the reason everything is great now.

The reason I like the book is because if you look at, the negro league and all the players and teams. It is so amazing on how no matter what their skin color is that they are amazing. Now if you look at it these are so many legends, we are talking about, all the legends in the twentieth century they’re stats are as good as the legends in the Twentieth century. Now I would recommend this book to you because the book just tells you about the true stories about the great negro league and the players. Then the final the theme is that there are incredible people and no matter what they’re skin is that they’re race.

Inside Out Story


                                                              Inside out Story
                                                                 Joy Moment


So the first time,when I had a joy moment was. In the summer of 2016, when I hit my first home run of my baseball career. Now the location was at Palos,Illinois and, the team I play with is called, the Berwyn Bulldogs. Then the day was on a Saturday the time was at 1:00 Pm I want to say, Now the team we played against were canal led the St Johns's Tomahawks. I remember the first at bat, I got a hit on a line drive Between 3rd base and Shortstop then, the second at bat I came up to lead off the inning and then the first pitch He threw, I hit it to center field I thought it can not be gone and sure enough it went over the center field wall, for a home run. Then when I got into the dugout all my teammates including my best friends Jake,Brandon,and Brendan were hugging me. Then I hit 4 home runs in the tournament, and led the team with 6 home runs and my best friend brandon had 5 home runs, it was the best year of my baseball career.
                                                                                            The end
