Title: Ever read A tree grows in Brooklyn?
Post by: sayyouwould on June 11, 2003, 01:08:18 pm
I'm reading it for summer reading...no school has not ended yet but I'm starting early because it's a long book plus I need to read 3 other books. So anyone read it? It's pretty good so far. I have read the first 17 pages and I'm into it! It's pretty good and it's a classic...so if you have never read it you should check it out.

ya I hate summer reading. I have to read two for english and two for history! But it's ok because I find a tree grows in brooklyn quite amuzing at the moment...lol jewish people aren't white...that made me laugh...and then I have to read the odysey! ohh fun! and then for history I have to read I have lived a thousand years and after the war. They are both about the holocaust so it should be easy considering I know a lot about it just by personal research.

yuppppp

ya a lot of the people I talked to who are going into the 10th grade said that it was really really boring. I think I'll have one of my friends who already read the book help me....it seems stupid.

1) Cece's amazed you all are just now reading The Odyssey.
2) My Aunt's an 8th grad teacher, she says high schools rarely look back at your grades.
3) I lost my Summer reading list, too. :\
