2. Identify and describe three weaknesses in this draft?
Your story has such a great start, but feels like there is so much more to your story. We know ‘Elizabeth” on the run with her son because of her abusive husband or boyfriend, but what made her go to hiding. Was he after her?

    Brief Summary Of Sophia's War By Avi

    The story begins with Sophia and her mother witnessing the hanging of Nathan Hale, a patriot spy. This was very traumatizing to Sophia and, had she not seen it, she would have never done what she did over the course of the next three years. After Sophia and her mother arrive safely at their house, along with Sophia’s father later on, they were forced to let a loyalist soldier live in their house with them. His name was Lieutenant John Andre and despite the fact that he was the enemy, he was very kind and Sophia began to fancy him. Sophia had to work at Mr. Gain’s printing shop to support her family because prices had gone through the roof and Sophia’s father could not go into work because he was injured. Meanwhile, John Andre often “flirted” with Sophia and her crush on him only grew. One day when she and John Andre were out walking, Sophia got a glimpse of her brother. Her family was very worried because he went missing a little while back. Anyways, Sophia’s brother, William was with a crowd of patriot soldiers heading towards King’s College which was now a loyalist jail. Sophia was able to visit her brother once by bribing a guard, but the next time she went she learned that he had been transferred to another jail, the sugarhouse. When Sophia told her parents of this, they came to one conclusion: they needed to get William out of jail. So, when John Andre came home that evening, the family begged John Andre to help.…

    Elizabeth Leefolt's 'Employer Of Aibileen'

    Because of her social status, Elizabeth can't be known as an abusive parent. Her status allows her to abuse and neglect her daughter with impunity, and prevents her from getting help for her problems. There are hints that Elizabeth is raising her daughter the way her mother raised her, with violence and disgust. But since we only see Elizabeth through Aibileen and Skeeter's eyes, we don't really know what's beneath her surface.…

    I would change that to give the book an interesting twist. There are many questions we would like answered but we’d have to hear them from the guys side point of view. The book is very good and there are a few things that we can expand on to make more interesting. Something interesting to expand on could be how she told her parents and how they reacted. What happened after she told her parents? Or we could wonder what happened to Andy. There are many questions and I would add the answers to those question to the book. I didn’t like that the book was short, I felt like it needed a little bit more but overall it was a great…

    I Am the Cheese Monologue

    I am confused. My name is Adam Farmer and also Paul Delmonte. I witnessed my mother and father murdered which truly makes me the cheese. I’m scared every time I think about them. I don’t want to speak about them but I fear I must to conquer the feelings. I knew my mother didn’t have any friends and my father told me that we had no family. My mother spent most of her time in her room and would have a phone call every Thursday evening and it would last a very long time. I didn’t really know my parents very well. They were mysterious to me. It was as if they were hiding myself from me, if that makes any sense. They used to whisper about me in their bedroom, with the door shut. I heard what they were talking about and I realized that they had been lying to me about my identity. My father almost caught me listening in but luckily he didn’t because I panicked and ran away before he could open the door. (1 minute) I was too scared to confront my parents about what I heard them talking about. I thought about telling Amy, my girlfriend, about how weird my parents are but I was scared of what type of opinion she would make of my family. Amy is someone who doesn’t take life too seriously. I think that she is the opposite of me because she isn’t ever afraid and she doesn’t panic, unlike me. I hate people that try to act like they are really tough, luckily they are usually stupid. There were a group of bullies that tried to take my bike and my package away from me. They weren’t clever enough to figure out that I left my bike with the police and they chased me to the police station where I rested for a while because they wouldn’t dare come near me then. Amy’s mother and my mother are also different as my mum stays home all day and her mum spends most of her time outside her house. I am afraid of a thousand things, a million. Like it is to be claustrophobic and yet fear open spaces too. I panic when I try to call Amy from a telephone booth and every time I come across a dog it…

    child called it

    I just wanted to start off by saying that your story “A Child Called It” is truly remarkable and an inspiration to many. What you have been through at such a young age is nearly impossible for me to imagine; but yet in your story you provide such great detail that I feel like I’m living the beatings right with you. In one of the scenes when you’re mother forced you to eat the baby’s feces I nearly gagged, I could not believe that people in the world were actually that sick. And not only in this situation but in all the beatings your mother gave you, I would cringe in my seat and not be able to watch, almost as if I was watching a scary movie. Also how could you’re brothers and you’re father just sit there and act as if you’re mother beating you is completely normal? The only thing I didn’t love about this book was that you never explained what happened to your mother after you escaped. Did she go to jail? Or did what she do to…
