Ever wondered what it would be like to meet a famous pop star? In the book Small Steps, Theodore gets to! This book is about a boy named Theodore. He is a nice kid who only wants to stay out of trouble. He was sent to Camp Green Lake because of a bowl of popcorn. Ever since then, he has been thought of differently. This doesn't help him because people already perceive him differently because he is African American. Thanks to his friend Ginny, he got to go backstage and meet Kaira DeLeon and this is where the action begins!
I really enjoyed reading this book. It definitely was and interesting book. It had great detail and tone. The author included lyrics for the artist in this book named Kaira DeLeon. Her lyrics made you deeply understand what she was thinking.
I have to say, Ginny is my favorite character. Even though she a has a disability, she still has personality. She has cerebral palsy. I feel really bad for her and wish there was something I could do to help.
I would recommend this book for both boys and girls between the age of 11-15. This book includes stuff that might be happening at this period in your life and it will make the book easier to understand. If you like books you can never put down, this is the book for you.

Good starter, that is a good way to start a book review. You have everything! I think you are set to go.
You covered EVERYTHING. I love your sentence starter
I love your first paragraph. You tell much about the book, but you don't give it away. Nice teaser!
I appreciate he thoughtfulness of your response. Thanks for following the outline we came up with in class.
You have a few small mistakes that you should fix. But other than that it looks good.
