Book blog 3/ The playbook by Kwame Alexander

The book I finished reading was the playbook I liked the book a lot because it just talked about how he kept trying to be great at something and every sport failed on him. But he nevered gave up and kept finding he tried every sport basketball, baseball, football etc. At one point be was wanting to give up but he didn’t, when he tried tennis he thought he wasn’t going to like it. But after he practice the whole two summers he was undefeated. The setting was mostly outside and the conflict was all the sports wasn’t going good for him. My favorite part of the book was when he found the sport he was good at and a professional. I recommend this book to people that like poems and work hard to do something that you like and your trying to find.

   I choose effort because I feel like I’m not putting a lot of effort into the things I do in and out of school, when I do my homework I put very little effort, when I clean my room I put a little bit of effort. Effort connects to my life in so many ways when I do something I love I put a lot of effort into what I’m doing when it’s sports, video games, and helping my siblings. Effort means to me like do better in the world and don’t mess up but when you di mess up you have to put effort into trying to make it better. Living this word will change my mind and people will see I’m doing a lot much effort than before and some will be surprised. The first step I’m going to do to live this word is look back at what I messed up and to fix it with effort.
