In my story, solider boys, my favorite character would have to be Spencer. He stands out in the book because he is sort of the underdog. Spencer isn't the strongest or bravest but he decides to drop out of high school to join the army and everyone says he shouldn't and that he is going to get himself killed but for some crazy reason he goes to war. Some people think that he only went to impress this girl he has liked basically his whole life, but he denies it. I f i could meet anybody in this book i would meet Spencer for multiple reasons. One of these reasons is because when he describes what training he went through to become a paratrooper it sounds like he went to hell and back and i would like to know more details about what he went through physically and mentally. Also another reason why i picked Spencer out of everyone else in he book is because he has a lot of courage. For example, even though he was only 16 he wasn't afraid to be shipped off to war and go through some of the toughest training. I would like to meet him because of his courage because he wouldn't be afraid to do anything that put his life in danger in order to save somebody.

My favorite character in literature would have to be John Michael Osbourne from the book I Am Ozzy. John changed in the book because in the beginning his family was very poor and his parents were mostly occupied with trying to make as much money as they could to support the family. At the end of the book John is a famous singer who’s making millions of dollars and has no money problems. Another example of how John changed through out the book is that in the begging everybody said that he couldn’t sing but that didn’t stop him, he put up a banner at the nearest music shop and after awhile he found a band. John and his band didn’t start off to good, it took them awhile to get big but after awhile John and his band became famous. By the end off the book he is a lead singer despise all the thing people said about him before. The reason I picked John as my favorite character in literature is because I find his life most interesting then all the other characters I’ve read in other books. There’s so many things the John goes through in his life and that he has to come over. Also another reason I picked him was because I’ve always wanted to be a band when I grow up and that’s exactly what John is. 

I don’t have a favorite book but one book I liked was I AM OZZY by Ozzy Osbourne. I liked this because I enjoy music and the whole book was about his music career. Another reason I liked reading this book is because Osbourne makes music that is catorized in the same genera as I listen to. This makes me like to read the book even more because I can’t relate and know what he is talking about so I’m not confused and lost in the book. 

Some of the genres I read is realistic fiction, nonfiction, and biographies. 

The I’m reading right now is called the Absolute Value of Mike. This book is about a kid named mike whose father is a mathematical engineer genius. Mike on the other hand is the opposite. He has trouble in learning math and engineer and is scared that he will complete disappoint his father when mike is sent to live with his great-uncle and great-aunt to complete a project that his father assigned. The project mike is sent out to accomplish is to build an artesian screw, but when he gets there he finds out that the project is actually called artist’s crew and his father misunderstood what the whole project was. Mike ends up having to help a group of people to raise a bunch of money so that they can enable a minster to adopt a child from Romania. It seams almost impossible for mike and the crew to raise enough money for the minister but Mike didn’t come all this way for nothing. He has to come up with a plan to collect $40,000 in just 3 weeks!!! That seems completely impossible, but Mike knows he’ll find a way to. There are a lot of talented people in the town he’s staying at and if he could only find away to use there talents to make money for the minister then It wont be easy but possible. Getting the money is one problem but explaining everything to his dad, well that’s a different story that Mike will have to deal with after he gets everything under control.
