Book Report: Part 1

While reading the book Thin Wood Walls, I like it. The book so far has been pretty captivating and interesting. The main character is named Joseph Hanada. Joe is boy at the age of about 13 years old and is dealing with the stereotypical time dealing with Pearl Harbor. Joe has had to make a lot of tough choices so far in the book, ranging from just the simple right or wrong ordeal or something a lot more significant that could affect him for a while. I agree with Joe’s decisions so far, like when he has almost gone into fights with non-Japanese people during the time following Pearl Harbor. I probably would have done and chose the same decision because everyone already has bad feelings toward American Japanese people and it would not be smart to go and pick a fight, which would make people madder at you.

I have learned in the book so far that sometimes you have to have patience and not just jump into things even though you may want to or it may have or does seems like the right thing to do, and most of the time things will have turned out for the better and everything would have been fine.

So far, I would probably rate the book a eight out of ten. I would give it an eight because the book has been pretty captivating and has kept me interested besides the point that sometimes I got bored because chapter after chapter were about the same thing. Otherwise, so far the book is going pretty good.
