Introducing My Book and This Year's Goals

     As I was reading, I noticed that books have very controversial aspects to it. My first book, Hoopster, was about a boy named Andre Anderson and his cousin Cedric and best friend Sean. All three of them love playing basketball together. But, the story focuses in on another passion that Andre has, writing. He works at a writing shop where he posts articles for the paper. One day, his boss gives him a big opportunity.

     Andre was offered to write on the front page of the newspaper. He wrote about racism and why it's not ok. Later on in the book, people are on violent towards him, but he isn't violent back. The book taught me to never answer with violence. This year I plan on improving on my writing skills and making an A in the class. As of now I'm not a great writer, but hopefully I will by the end of the year. I think writing is a good way to express ourselves.
