Statement:
I really enjoyed this novel and do feel that despite what many people think about kids like these, they are able to make a difference and surprise everyone with the amount of impact they have on the world around them. I really liked the fact how each entry was kept anonymous but you were still able to make connections with the characters and see their progression throughout the novel.
Question:
What are the freedom writers doing now? In the epilogue it talks a little bit more about what happened after graduation with the freedom writers but I would like more of a follow up and see what kinds of differences they were still making in their lives and the lives of other people who they have encountered since high school.
