Character: What I've been reading so far, Paul hasn't changed yet. He's still embarassed to be around Jacob because he has Down's syndrome. Whenever Jacob gets all of the attention, Paul gets mad and calls him an idiot at times. For example, when Jacob made a mess with his birthday cake, Paul said "gross" and his parents told him not to say it to him. Paul sometimes come home passing Jacob as if he was never borned. I don't like what Paul is doing, but it seems believable because there are people that are embarrassed to be around a family member if they have a disorder or disease. But hating your family member for having a disorder or disease is not believable.

Reading Life This Summer
The reading life of this year is going good. When I first heard I had to read books, I was disappointed but I actually enjoy reading the books I chose. The book I enjoyed reading the most " The Greatest: Muhammad Ali". I was even suprised I did good on the theme essays. The other books I chosed after were okay to read but still liked it.
The Greatest:Muhammad Ali
Dear Muhammad Ali,
What is it like to get knocked out? What does it feel like to be in the ring with some of the greatest boxers? It's good that you stood up for what you believed. Like how you changed your name and converted to the Nation of Islam. How did it feel to talk with Kareem and Malcolm X? You actually shocked me when you didn't want to go to war and let your title be takened away.
