Dear Ms. Zrihen, 12/13/11
I am not really enjoying reading the book, How To Be The Funniest Kid In The Whole Wide World ( Or Just In Your Class), written by Jay Lena. The genre is definitely Hummer. There is no store. There is no main character. The plot evolved in the following way threw the story: There is no store. The main problem is there is no story. The tone or mood of the book is not very suspenseful because, it tells the answers. A theme that appears in the book is stand-up comedy. There is no moral. From my point of view, I can see that this book is not meant . The author organized the story through Q and A. The author’s purpose is to entertain people. His perspective is that in life, you should have a laugh.
“What kind of mint is deadly if thrown? Spearmint.” This was written on page 50. I picked this passage because it shows that There are jokes. The passage is significant to the story because it shows that it is a joke book.
I used several reading strategies throughout the book. Before reading, I did the 5 finger test, or check the vocab. However I then abandoned it.
Figurative language I saw in the book: personification, simile, oxymoron.
I would rate this book 0 stars because at the book has no actual story. I think How To Be The Funniest Kid In The Whole Wide World ( Or Just In Your Class) is not a very well written hummer book. ( NO I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT TO THE CLASS )
Sincerely,
Mikey Rogatinsky
Dear Mikey,
ReplyDeleteGood reader's journal I am surprised. I liked how you mentioned figurative languages.
What were some specific sentences that included the figurative languages?
Was the author biased or unbiased?
Why do you think the author wrote the book?
Why won't you recommend the book to the class?
What are some during reading and after reading strategies?
sincerely, Juan 702
