A Pebble and a Pen

I had read the book, Pebble and a Pen, for a school project. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I could relate people I know to the character Matty and the people in her life. One of my favorite parts in the book was at the Forth of July Day festival. So much happened to her then. Matty had never been to something big like this, so it was a unique experience for her. This book keeps you in wonder as to what will happen next in Matty's eventful life. Matty had so much courage to do what her heart desired. Not many people believed in her, but to her all that mattered was that she believed in herself. In a class of all adolescence boys, she had to proved to them that she could do just as well as they could. It took her all the time she was at the Spencerian school to gain respect from her classmates. This book truly demonstrates the author knowledge of the time period and the subject addressed. It also shows her truly unique descriptive writing style. Overall this was a terrific, well-written book. I encourage people to read this book and go for their dreams.
