NightJohn

NightJohn was about a man teacher who explained to Sarny that he gave up his freedom. My favorite part of the book was when they taught the people in the school down in the woods. A memorable scene in NightJohn was when they beat Alice. From this book I learned that back in the old days this was how it was for people. This book makes me want to learn more about history, people, and the black race.

Special People

Those who bring sunshine,
Those who bring cheer,
Those who make everyday
Special all year...
Those who give help,
Understanding,and love
Are blessings on earth...
For they're blessed from above.
Those are special people.

Mr. Washington
