The Brady Handgun Violence Protection Act, in short: The Brady Act, was United States legislation that was passed by Congress in 1993. The Brady Act required a five-day waiting period and criminal background check, performed by state and local law enforcement, for the purchase of a handgun. The Brady Act was instituted to curtail handgun violence and decrease the probability of a handgun ending up in a criminal’s hands. The legislation was heavily pushed by Senator James Brady and his wife, Sarah Brady, after Sen. Brady was seriously injured by a gunshot wound during the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan in 1981.

Conclusion 1. Restate the main points: remind you topics covered
I began this book with mediocre expectations. I’m not much for reading novels, especially those as strenuous and non-fictional as the book of our topic. You could say I'm hard to interest. I assumed this read would just be the typical chore that reading books usually is to me, but as I so quickly found myself getting lost in the density written upon this book’s 383 factually packed pages and was engrossed by the photos printed in the middle of the book, I changed my mind. My expectations were pleasantly exceeded! I say with complete confidence that this novel is like nothing I have read before.
If you do not have any taste in very detailed books, I suggest you turn around and pick a different book to read. I am warning you that this book goes into so much detail, that you won’t want to leave the scenes. I warned you to leave this book.
I have the first two chapter of the assignment. It is totally different the previews books I have read. There wasn’t illustration or the hilarious cartoon in Arnold’s book. In addition, it is harder than the “ Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian” and Persepolis. I really liked how the author begun to introduce his grandparents. Michelle grew up her grandfather’s house. They become very close and he was role model for her. She tough her lot activities when she was young girl. This story remained my grandparents who used live next our home. I used to their everyday just to eat with, and I become very close to them.
This interesting concept of book will captivate young-adult readers everywhere. Her use of vivid description and wide variety of settings will have readers fully involved while they learn about Rho’s journey. This action-packed and fast-paced storyline with many twists will make it very difficult for readers to put the book down. But despite the uniqueness of this novel, it has a very cookie-cutter feel, borrowing many ideas and concepts from popular young-adult novels.
The reader can clearly understand what the chapter would be about, as well as the time period of the event. The author incorporated many inputs such as a chronology, family tree, index, as well as a map which helped the readers’ understandings. The chronology keeps track of events, the family tree identifies the character’s relationships, the index is used for the tracking of important topics, and the map provides a visual of the places that the family stayed at. There have also been photographs within the middle of the book which provides a visual, just like the map, but prove little relevance. The
My added chapter describes her reasons as to why she left the mountain, her abortion, her perspective of her relationship with Luo and how she had been transformed by the power of literature. I wanted to show how she has evolved and matured, from an uneducated, uncultured, innocent mountain girl to a mature, independent woman that
