This book is about Muhammad Ali's journey through his boxing career]]> 2019-02-08 15:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/329231366 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362937269 Muhammad Ali is a young kid with great boxing talent and is very confident in his skills which helps him seem unbeatable to other opponents.  I think as the story goes on that he is going to have hard times but get past them and become a great boxer]]> 2019-05-23 14:04:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362937269 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362938270 So far in the book Ali realizes his skills in boxing. Other people who are training him also realize that he has great skills.  although he was not very big he had great speed and agility]]> 2019-05-23 14:06:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362938270 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362938531 This book mainly takes place in Ali's hometown of Louisville Kentucky. I would not like to live where he did because the community was run down]]> 2019-05-23 14:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362938531 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362939050 A song that I think that relates to the text is "I'm gonna be somebody" by Travis Tritt. I say this because they both talk about working hard for something and never giving up]]> 2019-05-23 14:07:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362939050 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362973958 The main conflict in the book is that Ali has been banned from boxing and  and stripped from his boxing license because of his change to the nation of Islam because of his religious beliefs. He also then refuses to go into the military once chosen through the draft ]]> 2019-05-23 15:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362973958 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362975780 I think that the theme of this book is to never give up on what you believe in and work hard to achieve your goals]]> 2019-05-23 15:23:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/362975780 kienabro000 https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/363080448 I would recommend this book because it talks about Ali's journey throughout his life and how he has become the boxer that we now know today]]> 2019-05-23 20:01:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kienabro000/932l9m8e88t9/wish/363080448
