Tears of a Tiger By Sharon Draper-Dakari

Hello, my name is Dakari Thomas. I'm going to tell you about the book I am reading. My book is called Tears of a Tiger as you can tell by the title. I just got it not to long ago soo I'm not that far in the story. The book has been pretty good so far and I'm glad I found another book to my interest. My book is told in third person so there isn't a main character, its more of main characters. Those people are named, B.J., Andy, Rob, Tyrone. They were involved in a terrible accident on the highway after a basketball game. They had just blew the other team out by 40 or more and they wanted to celebrate. They went drinking and driving. The car was driven by Andy. They crashed into a wall. Robby feet was on the dashboard and when they crashed his feet went into the window. Everyone got out but he was stuck and the car caught fire while he was stuck inside. He died all because they were drinking and driving. This is how far I have got in my book, thank you.

My name is Steve Harmon, i'm 16 years old and i'm on trial for murder. I'm going to tell you about the worst days o my life I was a good kid but i got caught in the wrong crowd. Hanging around criminals got me messed up. I got sent to jail on trial for murder. I know i didn't do it but the judges don't know that. In jail I was scared everyday because I have to worry about fighting or sexual activity. Everyday I look up into the mirror and think what am I. December 22nd I was forced to do a robbery with people named James King, Richard 'bobo" Evans, Osvaldo Cruz and me. They wanted me to be a look out so i had no choice. The thing is I wanted to get paid for it but that didn't happen. I didn't want any part of this robbery so when they robbed the place i wasn't looking out I was doing a school project on my neighborhood for school but I walked in the store. I was supposed to give an all clear sign but I didn't give anything. King walked in
