Reading Response: Week of December 5

Characters!

My favorite character of all time comes from my favorite book, Stone Fox. To me, Little Willy is a dynamic character. He is diligent in earning money to save his grandfather's farm. He is nurturing towards his sick grandfather. He is kind and respectful to his competitor, Stone Fox.

A strong character and story can teach a lesson that you can apply to your own life. After I read Stone Fox, I tried to be a little more like Little Willy in my own life. If I have a problem and am facing obstacles, I try not to give up. If I am in a challenge or race, I treat the others in the competition with respect. A character like Little Willy taught me how important those things are in life.
