Conector

Connector

My job is to find connections between the book my group is reading. This means connecting what we read with our own life. This was the second time we did this job and I'm really happy with my connections.

Finally, all the chocolates have been sold.

This reminded me of a moment in second grade when we had a chocolate Monday and we had to sell chocolate so we could plant a tree and that tree would represent teamwork. I also wanted to show this connection because the book had a lot to do with chocolate and how the main character sells it.

Emile also likes to insult kids in public, telling them they have bad breath, or asking them if they just farted.

Obie drank his milkshake.

This scene helped me remember the time when I was drinking one of the best milkshakes in the world. There is a place in New York that is called blake tap and the line is five hours long. I also made this connection because the main characters favorite drink is the milkshake.

The novel ends with Archie and Obie walking home together in the dark.
This reminded me of a moment when I had one of the most important basketball games ever. I unfortunately lost but what reminded me was that after the game I was so sad that I didn't want to go home with anyone. I also made this connection because it was some sort of the same in the book.
