    2) A story could change someones life by giving a life lesson in the story. If it is about a student dropping out of school and having a bad life because he made bad choices it may influence a student not to drop out and stay in school.
    3) An event that made me question something was one night when my Dad, Sisters and I were all fighting like usual, my mom said that no others familys fight like we do and I thought no family is perfect and they all must fight too. I doubt they dont have struggles like we do
    4) stories that are worth reading are the ones with good characters and good mystery. I like stories with suspense. i like when you try to predict the story while reading it because if it turns out diffrent it makes you want to keep reading to find out what really happens.
