1.     I am not a big fan of reading but, my favorite book is, “Now is the Time for Running” by Michael Williams.

2.     My favorite genre is Realistic Fiction.

3.       I am currently reading, Now is the time for Running. This book is about someone named Deo and he is in a place where everyone around him is very poor and he is stuck in a huge place with fence around it. He is forced to stay there but he really wants to get out and see his dad. He was from Africa and this “camp” is in South Africa. There is this woman that helps people escape because she doesn’t think this is right at all. The Theme in this story is to never give up. I think that this is the theme because Deo and his brother are getting ready to leave and go see their dad in Africa but they aren’t supposed to. Another reason why I think this is the theme in my story is because he loves soccer and someone took his ball and he ran after them and took it back. Some items that are significant to this story are the soccer ball and the food they eat. They don’t eat very much so they have to save a lot of food.
