I connected to this book because the setting of this book is in a desert or a very hot and dry place like a desert, and I've been in a desert before, and it was like how they described their setting in the book. Also, there are many times in the books, where Salva and nya are starving and thirsty.many times. Times like this happen in my life, where i am either thirsty or hungry. This is how I or my life relates to this book. People that would be interested in this book is people who read non-fiction, and survival books

A Christmas Carol

I connected to this book because the weather in the christmas carol is a lot like the weather where i live right now. Also, i connect to this book because everyone in the story celebrates Christmas or hanica so they all get presents and turkeys, just like how i celebrate Christmas. Finally, i shovel driveways in the winter, and in the summer just walk a couple of dogs. And i get paid money after i do my job, just like mr. Crachit gets paid for working for scrooge. A person who reads, carols, and likes reading about non-fiction winter/christmas books would really enjoy this christmas carol.

I connected ti this book because in this book the main character ty, likes to play football, especially during the summer with his friends. And this is what i like to do. Also, Ty goes into a national tournement because he helped his team out, and this is what happened to my travel team for basketball. We got into very big tournements. Finally, in the tournement, his team gets into a championship game, where my travel team from 2 years ago got into a championship game, that we won. A person who reads sport, non-fiction, and out of your sit books, would love this book.
