The relationship that Trevor had with his mother in the book, prior to his little brother and step father being in the picture, is very similar to the relationship my mother and I have. We have a very "Us against the world" mentality, just like Trevor said in the book. No matter what, my mom and I have each other's backs before anyone else.

Trevor used to get in a lot of trouble with his friend Teddy when they were in school. Me and my friend Trevor or "TK" used to get in a whole lot of trouble back in elementary school.

I can't relate to Trevor when it comes to him as a young child. He describes himself as mischievous, but my friend's parents always saw me as an "angel" growing up. I was very well behaved and caring as a child. I don't understand why kids are like that growing up.

Growing up, Trevor's family was very religious and would attend church every Sunday. I can relate to this because when I was growing up, my family would always make me go to church and say a prayer every night before I go to bed. Now, my family rarely goes to church or does anything religious.

Trevor's mom was very independent and a free thinker, and my mother is very similar to her in that way. She didn't need a man in her life to help her

When Trevor moved to  Eden Park, his mother brought home 2 black cats from her work. When my Grandma moved to Austin, she bought herself 2 black cats.

I am a mixed child, of White/Russian and Asian/Uzbek, while Trevor is mixed of White/Swiss and Black/Xhosa. Growing up, people always thought I was something that I wasn't like Hispanic or Egyptian. So I am able to relate to him on that level.

Growing up, Trevor was really bad at talking to girls. He said he would always hang around long enough to be the friendly good guy when the girl would go date other dudes. We call this the "friendzone" and its an awful place to be in. I've learned you gotta shoot your shot early so you don't end up in it.

Trevor and I both grew up in a family with a single parent. At least he had one brother to have around when he was stuck alone, I had to stay home alone all of the time as a child and for some reason that led me to be good with other kids my age.

In 8th grade Trevor Noah went to Sandringham High School. Most of the kids who went there were rich white kids so he didn't really fit in. He didn't have much money and wanted to make more so he would get money from the rich fat white kids and he would run to the food trucks for them and get them their food. I can relate to this because my Dad has given me money to go get our family food before.

When I compare myself to Trevor Noah, I first think of how we both speak more than one language. He grew up in an area and time where he had to know more than one language in order to survive. I moved to the U.S. from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, so I grew up knowing Russian and English. Russian was spoken at home, while English was spoken at school and with my friends and with strangers.
