The Shimmershine Queens

In chapter one I like how the story began. What I liked was that Angie had made an made up an poem. The poem was talking about the elevator in thee building. It went "One Two Three Four Five Six Seven Eight peep around the corner see who's there. I just thinks it's a really great poem but that's not the whole poem . I liked how her and Michelle spoke AAL in the story. That's what I liked in chapter one.

To me this book was great.I liked when they got in a fight and then they started to be come friends.Angie is good at being a friend.When she shows feelings.I thought she was very good at showing her feelings.It is good to show feelings.This is a great book!

I think this a really well written story.It is very moving and emotional.This book contains lots of slang, so it was very easy to fallow along. This book is about a girl named Angie.She dreams of going big and buying her mom a big house. Until the day she meets her Cousin Seatta. She tells her to achive her dreams by telling herabout her african beauty, her heritage of slaves, on top of all the shimmershine feeling. Do you really want to figure out what happens next go ahead and read it!!!!

This book is a good book and I think everyone that has big dreams for the future should read it. If you don't have big dreams or something that you want to strive for than you can't really relate to this book. I think this book is so good because it is one of those books that make you laugh,cry, and upset. This book is really good and this book also flicks a switch in people that makes them want to do good in life.
