If you're reading this! 2nd book

         In the beginning of the book "If you're reading this," It is about how this boy named Mike gets someone to notice him in football he wasn't expecting it to happen. But however the coach really wants him on the team. I know this because in the book it says, " Look i don't chase everybody down like.The rest of the guys have been bursting their butts for over a week in camp." This proves that the coach really wants Mike on his team but Mike doesn't really seem to get the concept on how he could change his years of being in high school he could finally get noticed in the school. In the story it says that, "You only have three more years to play football. Don't miss out on the best years of your life." This shows that This could really make a change on his years of going to high school and having a good time being a high schooler. Although before this he had a gotten this letter from his dad before he died. The letter arrived a few weak's before Mike's 16th birthday. In the letter it says, " If you're reading this, then I'm very sorry but I was killed in the war in Afghanistan." This tells the readers that Mike's father tried his best to still have a relationship with his son before he died. But unfortunately the letters came a bit late.


       
          I have the same connection to Mike when I was in 5th grade I started out doing cheerleading in the middle of the year towards the end, and during 6th grade I was on 2 cheerleading teams. I decided to try something different so I decided to try being on the dance team. My story connects to his is because I decided to try something different just like he did. But instead his story is about football, the stories are similar because we both have sports involved. In the story it proves that 2 people from different countries or states can have the same mind set but in different things.
