Evaluatetion

I like this book because it about the bees and that they have a secret life and every bee has its role to play in their hive and their pretty fun to have.

And the bad part about this book is about the May she likes to cry a lot and the weird thing is about the God mother in their living room that they didn't let Lily touch her.

''Secret Life of Bees''

That's the last I heard him yell before we got inside, Where I had an overpowering impulse to kneel down and kiss the jail- house floor.

The only image I had for jails was from westerns at the movies and this one was nothing like that. For one thing, it was painted pink and had flower-print curtains in the window. it turned out we'd come in through the jailer's living quarters. His wife stepped in from the kitchen, greasing a muffin tin.

The jail cells smelled with the breath of drunk people. He put us in the first cell on the first row where somebody had scratched the words ''Shit Throne'' across a bench attached to one wall. Nothing seemed quite real. we're in jail, I thought. we're in jail.

I think that she uses big words and she explains that you can imagine how it was and I don't think that I could write like that.

Where I grew up

I grew up in Ukraine. We lived in a little city where there was not a lot of people. We lived not very far from river like 5 minuets of walk and we went there all the time. And in winter the water would freeze and I didn't skate but my brother did. We had a little farm with some chickens, ducks, a few cows and our house was not really big but it was pretty old and it was a one story home and we had a big shop and a barn for cows and all the animals. I don't really remember a lot cause we moved when I was 5 years old.

This I Believe

I believe that people should help other people. It's important at least just to ask if they need help.

Some times people help me. Once I went to a store and my car battery died. One man asked me if I needed help. I said yes I do. I was grateful that he asked since I did not have my cell phone with me. He got out his jumper cables and he pulled his car next to my car. He attached the jumper cables to his battery and to my battery. I started the car. I was glad my car started right away. As he unhooked the jumper cables from my car battery I thanked him. Because of his help I was able to drive home.

Some times I helped other people. When my brother worked in construction he needed me to help him. I had to pick up the scrap wood and throw it in a pile and I had to carry lumber where he needed it. In the beginning of a day I had to get the tools out of the truck and bring it in the house where we worked.

It's nice when people help you or when you can help other people like the guy helped me with the car battery. If people would not help other people the world would be different and people wouldn't be that friendly.
