ATTENTION TO EVERYONE



HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!! Anyway, I am reading the book Miss Jane Pittman. So far I really like the book and it reminds me alot about Mockingbird because of the racism issue is pretty big in both books.

I think that Miss Jane Pittman is a better book because there is alot of things going on and and Roll of Thunder just seems...hmm boring. I don't know. I guess I can't judge a book by it's cover. I learned that in Kindergarten.


Also, about Miss Jane Pittman, the book is pretty...umm graphic. At the beginning it explains about a guy getting the tar beat out of him and how his skull sounds when it was crushed. It kind of get my blood going about how the white guys killed the little black baby and it's mother. Seriously that is so wrong. Well I would love to get as many comments and James Blonde...I guess he's just too cool. (I'm just kidding)

CONCERNING EVERYONE IN THIS CLASS:

Turkey or Ham?

I love this book! I think that Jane is such an amazing person. She is so strong and has a tone of character! And, I agree, Jane is way better than Thunder!
