 * My Sister's Keeper **

** REFLECTION ** ==== This book is by Jodi Pilcout, and is so far one of my favorite books. I love it because its all I look for in a book, it's not too girlish so boys can read it too, and its not childish so grown ups can read it as well. This book has sad parts which I have to admit made me cry, and funny parts that made me laugh and share with my friends. Once you have read this book I suggest you see the movie, you will be suprised by the many differences! I know I was! ====

** SYNOPSIS **
==== Sara Fitzgerald's daughter Kate is just two years old when she is diagnosed with a rare form of leukaemia. Still stumbling with the helpless shocks of it, Sara knows she will do anything - whatever it takes - to save her child! ==== ​ When the test results come back time and again to show that no one in thier family is a match for Kate, Sara realizes that she only has one option; creating another baby specifically designed to save her sister. For Sara it seems like the ideal solution, but when Sara recieves papers from Anna, saying that she is suing her parents for the rights to her own body, everything changes!

​ This term our unit was on Shakespeare, and I really learnt alot. At first I must admit i was not too happy about doing Shakespeare because everyone gave me the impression that it was boring. But as I began to read one of his stories A//s You Like It// I slowly began to change my mind about Shakespeare and started enjoying it. The first thing we did when we started this unit was answered the question "What is a Classic?" eventhough i knew what it was explainning it was very diificult, but after weeks of learning about Shakespeare and his great works I can say a classic is a piece of literary work that no matter how old it is, it can still be related to the modern world. I think all Shakespeare's works are claasics because everyone in our class was able to write an essay explaining the relevance between the play's themes and modern life. Other than reading and analyzing the play //As You Like it,// my group and i had to make a short readers theatre play based on the original play. We also had to make our own version of Sparknotes for our play called Spearenotes, and boh his projects were very fun. Overall I really enjoyed this unit, way more than i though i would have, and if there is one thing I learnt, its that Shakespeare's work is most definately not boring!
