Standing Tall

This is a book about 10 different Latino American with big stories or helped change the world. It contains of Latinos like baseball player Reberto Clemente and also singer Gloria Estefan. My favorite person in the book so far is Roberto Clemente. For the reasons being that I am a baseball player and he was also a baseball player. Also he had a great story. He is not only one of the greatest baseball players of all time, getting 3,000 hits right before his death. He also died trying to help other people. He was going to give aid to People in Puerto Rico after the an deadly earthquake nearly ripped it apart. He was on the plane when the plane malfunctioned and crashed in the middle of the ocean killed every person on board and Roberto Clemene's body was never found. Lastly he always wanted to help kids and many people in Puerto Rico. He always loved kids and wanted to help them. He knew kids were in poverty in Puerto Rico because he used to be one of them. So he wanted to make a stadium for kids over there were new equipment, and a field and coaching was provided for them. But he never got the chance to build it.

Holocaust background question 12

People didn't stand up during the holocaust because they were afraid that they would become a target of the nazis and they would be killed. If the nazis weren't going after them they didn't care. They just didn't want to risk anything. But later they would still go after them as well.

Ann frank

Ann Frank faced many adversity in her life.First of all, people that followed her religion were being hunted. She wasn't able to have any fun and she is a teen that needs to have fun. It must be very hard to be with your family for many days straight. It must have been very hard for her and also very boring. I have not have that much adversity throughout my life. Really not had much. The  last adversity I had was facing me great grandpa passing away. It was a little hard time in my life but I survived through it.
