*Homework #76*


A Non-Fiction book that i readed was called Michelle Obama. This book is about the First Lady, How her life was like growing up and her opinion about her hudusd being the President of the United States. I read this book because i thought it will be intersering to read about Michelle Obama what it was like in her days. Did it change ever since The Civil Right Movement. i don't like Non-Fiction better than Fiction because Fiction are real intersering stories. The subject i would like to read Non-Fiction in is Science, ELA(of Course) and also Social Studies because they tell you many information about different types of things. For example, in Science we are reading about Cells. In the Textbook, they talk about Cells. they are Non-Fiction.

(Non-Fiction is when it tells a true story).

Is Byron Just a Delinquent?

Byron had just turned thirteen so he was officially a teenage Juvenile Delinquent and didn't think it was " cool " to touch anyone or let anyone touch him. Byron is definitely a god at Clark Elementary, and he can't seem to stop getting in trouble at home, either. Byron is the older brother of his ten year old brother Kenneth "Kenny" Watson and his four year old sister Joetta "Joey" Watson. Byron acts like he is still ten year old, but when he face challenge he acts responsible. In this essay, i will be explaining if Byron a good brother or a bad brother to Kenny and Joetta.or does Byron has a good side or is he just a delinquent.
Is Byron a good brother to Kenny and Joetta? yes, Byron is a good brother to Kenny and Joetta because on page 25 Byron stand up for Kenny when Larry Dunn(a bully at school) sold Kenny gloves. Byron like help his brother and sister, but does it in a bad way because on page 54 it said " Joey stated to cry" that when Byron was convince joey to wear the winter clothes, but he still made her cry and also on page 26 when Byron told Kenny " look man, if you don't want people to look at your messed up eye, you just gotta do this" Byron sometime like threaten Kenny for example on page 135 when Byron said " you say one word about this to anyone and said I'm gonna jack your little light weight behind, you hear?" this is how Byron is a good brother or bad brother to Kenny and Joetta.
Does Byron has a good side or is he just a delinquent? Byron does have a good side. Byron shows his good when the family take a trip to Birmingham. Byron showed his good side when he was talking to Kenny on page 202 about how brave he was for thronging to save joey for the bombing, this is what Byron said" Ain't no genies in the world Kenny ain't no magic powers, there ain't even no Angel, not in the neighborhood anyway. Man, i just don't get you, you supposed to be the one who's so smart. how can you believe in something as stupid as magic powers and genies living behind a couch but not believe it was part of you that took Joey outta that that Church?" and also on page page 200 Byron also tell Kenny this " we all did, Kenny. there ain't nothing wrong with being sad of scared about that. I'm sad about it too. i real scared too". Byron shows his good side on the trip, but real did want people in Birmingham to think he was a delinquent.
Byron is a very nice person, every since that trip Byron had change the way he acted. Byron had face many challenge on the trip to Birmingham. Byron is a delinquent, but deep in side he somebody different.

The Watsons go to Birmingham: Kenny Scarpbook

Today in the 60' they were many popular things like soul music, Culture, and also fashions. Fashion in the 60' is like fashion right now. Fashion cannot repeated. pants were worn for only the most casual activity. and never worn to school. Fashion in the 60' were not that much money. soul music was a merger of gospel-charged, secular subject matter, and funk rhythms, souch grew out of the fifties rhythms and bluse. Culture in the 60' were like culture how we it is today.

l know it was Sunday because i could hear joey getting ready for Sunday school. the neighbors came and got her as soon as i got out of bed. i was standing in the doorway doing my morning Socrates when she walked by. joey had on a fluffy white skirt, a regular blouse and the little white gloves grandma sands give her. the people that came and got her ask me why i was going to Sunday school. i told them i forget to get up on time. Everybody in the house knew that was a lied bu no one seem to care. i wondered if something was wrong with me, because it was really easy for me to lie. i had my cereal and went out to the backyard. it was too hot even in the morning. i started going to sleep under the tree and thought i was dreaming when the noise came. it seemed like every animals, birds and bugs in Birmingham stopped making noise for about one second. my dad came to the back doors in pajama pants and a t-shirt. i leaned back against the tree and closed my eyes. a few minutes later, Byron just told me that a guy just came by and said somebody dropped a bomb on joey church. if that was true why did i just stand there looking stupid. as soon as we got to the church, mom and dad were freaking out. they couldn't find joey anywhere, but you could see people coming out of the church all bloody and all you could tell people were buried under the part of the Church that collapsed. i cant take this anymore. first i almost drowns, then we think joey got killed by the bomb. i think i want to go back to flint.
