If I Grow Up Book Report

Schools should not ban books. These are the reasons schools should not ban books. My first reason is, Changing books can can effect the past and the future. History can vary if books are changed. When people want to change the past they have the future to keep in mind.

My book report is on Fast Forward the author is Celeste O. Norfleet.

CHARACTERS - The main character throughout most of the book is “Verity”, or Julie. She is actually telling the story of Maddie, however, although her presence seems to still be main focus throughout the story. Halfway through the book, however, it switched to Maddie’s point of view, or “Kittyhawk”. With both of the girls, you can see the changes in them. They both develop greatly and you can see it through them by just looking at what they are afraid of. It mentions once in the story that Julie

John C, Maxwell is an American author, speaker, and pastor who has written many books, primarily focusing on leadership. I found this book to be well thought and well written. Most people would assume that this book was written with the intentions of how to make a loss a win. I, however think this book focuses mainly on how life is full of up and downs.

I, as well was an avid reader, due to my exposure to all of the books that can be found around the house, and in the bookshelf downstairs.
