What’s good about this is that children may not realize how often they or others interrupt people who are speaking. Another important component to the story is how the author writes “I have a lot to say, and all of my words are very important to me”. This shows that the author knows that children’s own thoughts, feelings, and needs are the important to themselves. All children need to be aware that their own thoughts, feelings, and needs are important and should be respected. Also, the humor brought into the book really helps to keep the children interested and interacting with the book. An example of this is when Louis is raising his hand he says, “I waited patiently for what seemed like 62 years…”. Another component to admire about the book

    This element of making associations and learning language at a young age is crucial. For instance, infants have an inborn ability that allows them to learn languages quicker than adults can and is why it is urgent to expose them to these pictures and varieties of text when they are young and well equipt.

    I am reading the book Diary of a Wimpy Kid, it is by Jeff Kinney the book is a realistic fiction genre, this book has 217 pages in it. A customer on goodreads posted a review on this book and they said, “This was so cute and funny, I laughed out loud many times even the comedy books I have read didn’t make me laugh this hard!” I think a good age for this book is maybe from a 6th grade middle schooler to an adult would be an appropriate age, this age because there is a little bit of language, and I don’t think younger kids would understand all of it.
