The book that I have been reading is call “Judy Moody was in a Mood” written by Megan McDonald. This book is about a girl who is very exciting to do a project which is to create a collage about her. She spends most of the time with her brother and her friends to finish her project. Finally, she finished making the collage and tried to bring it to the school, but a bad event happened to her. However, the happening creates her collage even better. Here are some quotations that I found while I’m reading.
·“I want to be a doctor like Elizabeth Blackwell, first woman doctor! She started her own hospital. She knew how to operate and put together body parts and everything” – This quote is from chapter 2, page 39. I like this quote, because she has a dream what she wants to be in the future. Also she respects Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman doctor. She is motivated by this woman and wants to be the doctor For me, I do not even have an aim right now and also I have no one to respect. Therefore, when I read this parts, I was little jealous at her and felt I have to find something that I want to do in the future. I also learned a history about the first woman doctor from this sentence, so I like this sentence.
·“It’s okay. At least it didn’t get run over by a bus in a tornado.” - The sentence is from chapter 9, page 146. This is when her brother dropped juice on her final collage. Actually, she doesn’t want her brother to touch her collage, because it is her perfect project, but she had many things to carry, so she asked her father and brother to bring it to school. However, her brother did that accidentally, and both her brother and father said sorry to her a lot. What she said after she saw her wet collage, she said it is okay. Actually, she will get angry, but this time, she accepted their deed. When I read this part, I felt that she grew little bit, because after that event, she used that speck of juice to make one drawing. I was so proud of her and it disposed me to see her collage.
I enjoyed this book, because I learned how Judy Moody, the main character’s personality is like and how she manage her time for her project. I like her personality which is active and imaginative. She always goes outside to find something interesting with her brother and her friends. When I was young, I always go out side and play with my friends as her, so I feel an affinity with her in someway.
