What we have learned today:
We learned that hunger games is a very dangerous and brutal game and survival is very hard since there are other tributes out to kill you and it is hard to live in the wilderness. There will be smart people who will seem mean and betray you at first but in the end, they come through like Peeta Meelark. There are people who will team up with you in an alliance.
Connection:
In the book, the characters are similar to those in the real world. Because there are people who are rich, people who are poor. There are the weak, kind ones and there are the mean, built ones. The setting is different because it is split into districts, and there are capitals who will overpower the rest.
Author's style:
It's in the present tense, though it sometimes has flashbacks. It's from the point of Katniss, so we don't really know about the other perspectives of the characters. It's an amazing read, because I never want to put the book down, I want to keep reading it.
Genre:
adventure, action and romance
Recommendation:
I would recommend it to everyone, all genders and ages. It's not bias and it's a page- turner. I guarantee you will love it.

Song analysis
Rudolph the red nose reindeer
This song is about acceptance and discrimination. Rudolph was the reindeer that was the odd one out and different. He was always made fun of because he had a red nose that glowed which wasn't normal. The other reindeers played games together but didn't let Rudolph join because he was different, so they saw him as weird and abnormal. They also called him names, but one foggy day, Santa asked him to guide his sled because he could see through the fog with his glowing nose. Rudolph saved the day, and the other reindeers loved him and he was accepted as the quote says: "Then how the reindeer loved him As they shouted out with glee, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, You'll go down in history." From that day on Rudolph was praised and seen as hero because what was different about him turned out to be useful.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
The main character which is Harry Potter is a young boy who is brave at heart. Even though he has continuous unfortunate events thrown at him, he always finds a way to make it right and stay optimistic. I would say he is a determined person because he would do anything to protect his friends and find out about his past.
I would give this book a rating of 100 over 10. It's just a brilliant book and will keep you reading for more. It's packed with all genres- action, comedy, romance and other things. You will feel like you are in the character's shoe as you travel with them through thick and thin. I would recommend this book to everyone, big or small. Boys or girls. People usually read this wonderful series when they're eight until they're 30 or above. People usually pick this book as their favorite in the series and would read it numerous times. It's a book that is sure to keep you sucked in.
