The book I'am reading is "Full Moon Horror" by Jason Strange this book is about when 4 friends went on a road trip and when they were coming back home they were out of gas. Nelson, Zeek and Jack. Jack's brother took him and his friends to a road trip and they ran out of gas a Ravens Pass. So Garry goes and get gas from the gas station 1.2 miles up a head and the others were waiting in the car and it was hot in there. So, they get it out and as they get out and start walking it starts to poor rain and they see a bridge and they go under it. After that they meet this guy his name is Caleb and he loves the full moon. They get in a circle and they talk about the Werewolf's and the moon after that they noticed the Caleb disappeared and he came back but, in werewolf form when Garry comes back they put in the gas and then they leave and get away from him.

My reflection on this book is great because there is Caleb who is weird and the others notice it and how he talks about the full moon. After they all turn away he runs and forms into the werewolf and then he comes back to them but, not in human form but werewolf. One part I would change is when Caleb runs and turns into the werewolf I think he could of taken them into his house and then he could of transform into the werewolf and could of eaten them. Thats what I think should of happen in the story. I really like this author because he only writes scary stories and he makes them interesting. Jason should keep writing scary stories like this one and the others I read during this year I really like them and so will other people.

William proved to be a valuable commodity, but not Arthur. Coach Pingatore himself found funding fro William. Patricia paid for his tuition but not only that she proved a good paying summer job. But, to Arthur he did not get any funding and they locked him out of St. Joseph High School and addition the coach did not consider him at star material and that angered his parents and and delivered a huge blow to his self esteem. Later on William and Arthur were choosing college Arthur did not take all the right courses to take the ACT to go to Division 1 High School. Arthur had to go to Junior college in southern Missouri while William goes to a better college. Patricia gave William a tuition free ACT prep class to get all the required 18 on the ACT and got a scholarship to Marquette University.

My reflection on "Hoop Dreams" its inspiring to others because the characters have a dream and they want to achieve it so they practice and practice till they get better and even better. Who ever reads this they are gonna want to do a sport and never stop practicing After I read this book I played soccer way better because I believed in my self that can I do it. One time I wanted to do a soccer trick and I ended p failing but, now I know how to do it and I mastered it. Since Arthur and William were little kids they wanted to play in the NBA but they knew what they had to go through first is school, college and other thing and then play in a league. I really loved this book and so will you:).

The conflict of this book is about Arthur not going to the school that he wanted because of his ACT scores and did not took the right classes from them. I know this because it sates it int eh article, "Arthur did not take all the right courses to take the ACT to go to Division 1 High School." In addition it also states that, "Arthur had to go to Junior college in southern Missouri while William goes to a better college." This proves that the school was being more concern on William because he plays better and goes the school that Arthur wanted to go.
