Zoe, Grade 5

Miles Morales
3. What’s the first book you ever remember reading?
Probably an ABC type book with lots of pictures as I was learning my alphabet
4. If you could write your own book, what would it be about?
Maybe a book of poems set to one mood. I’d try to make my reader connect to what emotions I want to make them feel. And maybe try to get a message across.
5. What do you enjoy about reading?
It sets my mind at ease and also, like music, you can match a book to your mood. There are so many different ones out there, there’s a book for anyone and any mood.
