su madre
I heard.
This memoir is based on a moment that occurred in the childhood stage of the writer. The protagonist was about six years old when this event occurred. He was playing outside, in the yard of his house when his father came with some inner tubes. They started to play with the inner tubes jumping on top of them like a trampoline. While they were playing with the inner tubes, he decided to use one of the inner tubes as a motorcycle. He went down the road inside the inner tube thinking that his sister was going to be able to stop him, but the inner tube rolled over his sister and went straight to the main road. Fortunately nothing bad happen.
I noticed.
I like this essay very much because, as I was reading it, it brought me good memories of my childhood. I imagine every single moment of what was happening when you were inside that inner tube as if I was next to you at that moment. I bet you had lots of fun that day with those tubes. Because you described the scene pretty good, I was able to imagine everything that was going on that day, the house were you lived, the maple trees and even the shape that they made and the beautiful day. Also I like when you said that when we are children we have no worries and that the carefree attitude and the sense of freedom takes to live many things that as a adult can not anymore.
I wondered
The only thing I wonder in this essay is that if you are telling a memoir, should you write this in a past sentence? Something that I keep asking myself is where were your parents while you were playing? Fortunately nothing bad happened at the end, but can you imagine if there was a car coming in the same direction that you were going while you were inside that inner tube?.

    The essay “Calling Home”, written by Jean Brandt was about her experience as a child on a supposedly happy day at the mall, which turned sour because she stole a 75-cent snoopy button, followed by the nerve wrecking situations she had to face. I learned that she wrote really well and explained her story in extreme detail. Everything transitioned well with each other and had a very smooth flow to it. It was also very easy to understand what she was facing because she stated her emotions in each event clearly. She wrote until the extent you feel as if you are in her shoes, a thirteen-year-old girl during that time.…

    The reason I shared this condensed story is because it is one of the most important moments of intellectual development in my life. It showed me that these departures from my comfort zone were as a matter of fact not fatal. I began to think “Hey, it won’t kill me.” as a way to push myself onwards and upwards.…

    One more thing that I liked about the essay is the clear description of moments he had in the train. He described about person, building, streets and many more and they are full of imagery. Also about the wide ethnic mix. Even things that wasn’t very pleasing. He talks about violence too. He tells about seeing a woman pull a knife. Then goes on to talk about women who talked about slapping someone silly and putting them into the hospital.…
