Book I read: Drums, Girls and Dangerous Pie

Author: Jordan Sonneblick

His Weekend was terrible; he could not stop thinking of his brother. He was thinking that he caused Jeffery’s Leukemia. His father still did not mention about anything, and he was feeling hatred toward his mom about not calling him for whole week. He was so worried that he even thought that Jeffery and his mom are having little vacation in Philadelphia and the doctor was wrong. After weeks past, Jeffery and his mom finally came back to home. Steven imagined Jeffery smiling in the car. However, when they came, it was different. His brother was sleeping in the car, which was very rare to see. When they got out of their car, Steven was shocked. He could see his mom was very tired and her eyes were red. Steven went to his mom and asked her “Why did not call me for whole week? The doctors were wrong right?” His mom was little shocked and asked his husband that why he did not tell Steven about everything. Therefore, there was one more family fight, and they went back to their daily life.
After I read this section, I was feeling very stupid toward Steven’s family. His family was very selfish, and blamed others for no reason. I hope they reconcile and become a big happy family. At last, I am enjoying this book very much.
