The Dying Girl

My name is Caroline and I have read your book The Maze Runner. This book changed me in many ways, mostly in awareness of how I work with others. Also how I problem solve and the methods I employ to do that. My guess for why it changed me so much is because my life relates to it and I personally relate to Thomas. The biggest way this book changed me is what kind of person I am in a group or during a school project. Now I like being the leader in a group and to be in charge.

Personally, the book taught me a lot about how people deal with situations when under pressure, people’s need for power and how easy it really if for a war to break out and I found that in my mind I could easily link what was going

I saw how people were struggling to get by while people in the first world had almost all the luxuries they could have. If everyone just gave up a little, one or two of each of their luxuries to support others not as fortunate as us many of the worlds constant problem would be fixed. The world's top 1% actual owns around 50% of the wealth in the world, imagine if all that wealth was shared, how so many more people could benefit. Furthermore I consciously decided to try to be nicer especially to immigrants and refugees. The reason is that after reading the book and learning about the horrible conditions that some of these people may have to go to really opened my eyes.

I personally love this book! This book made me feel aware of how other people have

I believe this book influenced me to become a better person. It made me want to stand up for others; I used to just ignore the conflict. I also will try to be more kind to others. I will

I can’t say that I have found the answers to the questions I constantly ask my self after reading this book, but I feel like I now have the right mindset to find the answers to these questions among many of the other great questions of life.

The sweetest person can end up being your worst nightmare (Weebly). The novel Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth Scott is a novel that is very “stark, gripping, and totally unforgettable” (Ellen Hopkins). It makes any reader reflect and visualize the painful life Kyla lived at the age of five. Her life took a drastic dark twist she does not wish upon anyone. As the novel progresses a strong theme of not trusting anyone developed due to the simple innocent mistake that leads Kyla to become an Alice who wished to see her home at 623 Daisy Lane one more time.

A) What did you learn about yourself in doing the exercises in the book (How Many People Does It Take to Make a Difference? One) that you didn’t already know? Response: This book has taught me many things about myself that I didn’t know . For example , I usually don't think about life in a hard way but this book helped me view life differently. In the beginning of book one of the first exercises it asks “ Who am I ? ” that question kind of threw me off guard and made me think hard. I asked myself who am I exactly? I then learned I was a daughter , a student , a sister but then I discovered that I’m more than this. I’m someone who listens

My parents always taught me that I should treat people the way I wanted to be treated. In your book Tris taught me that everyone is different not everyone acts the same, and Tris also taught me that I should stand up for what I think is right. Your book has changed me and the way I look at the world.

This book also opened me up to various other aspects of psychology, such as reading Micro Expressions. I started doing a lot of research on a psychologist named Paul Ekman, he was one of the pioneers on micro expressions. Being able to understand this concept could be one of the most useful tactics you

My favorite activity from this book was creating a big Wandering map. In the beginning, it was a little bit difficult. Obviously, I know many things about myself, my personality, all of the events in my life. However, putting it all on the paper, choosing which of them are important and which are not was difficult. After brainstorming all the thoughts, I had in my mind I put it all on the huge piece of paper. Somehow, in helped me to organize it in my mind. I saw my whole life on the piece of paper and I saw what has played a significant role. Some of the things were kind of indecently. Therefore, I understood that there are no accidents in our lives.

I learned that certainly we can take God at His word. Because our thoughts are not His thoughts and His ways are not our ways. (Isaiah 55:8) and that He has a future planned out for us, better than any finite being can ever craft on their own. (Jeremiah 29:11). And lastly I’ve learned to continue, to continue in what I’ve learned and believed. To run the race that has been set before me and to persevere on. Overall, this book has made me evaluate my life, it’s made me realize that I can’t know God on my own, that I can’t do anything on my own, and that I need His help and guidance to persevere on in this race, because without Him I am truly

What I learned in this book is to never give up. Nicky and her dad found a newborn child in the snow. They believed the child was almost dead if not dead. They never gave up and brought the child to the hospital. On the way their is was snowing and deep snow everywhere. The travel was hard on their feet. Once they got to the Hospital the doctors took her and all they could do is wish for the best. The child survived and healed completely. A good example of a benefit to reading this book is to never give up.

After reading this book, I look at our world differently. I am gratified by what we have

In the year 1997 on the 28th of October, a young girl is born. She is small and knows nothing of the world. But, her parents, they know she will do great things. What they are, they have not a single clue, but even so, they want to see where she will go. What they don’t foresee though, is the pain she will have to go through first to get there. She is different from most kids. She isn’t attracted to the boys girls in her class fawn over. She finds drawing characters in the shows she watches with her godfather to be much more interesting. It gets her into trouble with the other kids. So much so, that her parents are forced to transfer her to another school due to the bullying. Sadly it does not end there. No matter where she went, she was bullied. But, it doesn’t matter. She has art, and that is all she needs.
