The Team That Could Never Lose
When I read the title of this book I thought that this was going to be a good quick read. I also thought that, since last year our football team didn’t win one game, this might give me some pointers. What I thought to myself was. Can I see myself reading this book? Can this book help me? How long is this book? And of course what is this book about? This book has a lesson to it well at least I thought it did.
First there is the main character Chip Chase and he as some problems in the beginning of his new football year and he learned a good lesson. The lesson was in the beginning and somewhat throw he whole thing was don’t judge someone before you get a chance to see what they can do. Like when the team was really sad because there head coach had to leave for his job. So he left his assistant coach in charge and the team thought he didn’t know anything about football. So Chip Chase was going to quit so when it was almost football practice time and he didn’t have his practice jersey on his mom and dad wonder why. He just said “I feel like quitting because Mr. Kash left (the first coach) and Phil Wayne (the assistant coach) and Mr. Quley (the new assistant coach) coaching and I don’t want to play on a team that will lose all the time.” This lesson was the main lesson in the whole book.
Usually books about sports aren’t that great because they never really know much about the sport they write about. This book was a really good. It was well written because they describe the book like a real football book. When he describes the first practice chip goes to when Phil Wayne is coaching the author really describes Phil like a real coach how he acts in the book at practice and I could just see the author talking about one of my football coaches. Phil I think isn’t as mean and funny as my coaches were.
I would recommend this book for anyone of any ages. This is a good quick read with the 14 chapters it has. Its fast action and has one great lesson. Don’t judge a book by its cover. Well I kind of did because the cover of this book look cool so I read it and it was.

My First Roller Coaster (Childhood Memory)
My first roller coaster was amazing I was with my friend Tyler Thompson. It was a big thriller for me going down a like a 60 foot drop. It was a 4 person cart and it was me and my friend in the front and in the back was his little brother and someone else I can’t remember. It was in Omaha, Nebraska I was there because my older brother had this big tournament. They got 4th and got this sweet glass trophy.
What I learned from this experience was that roller coasters aren’t all that scary and they are easier when you have your friends with you. Whenever you have a friend with you, you can do anything. This experience changed me because I used to be scared of them now I know they are not that scary. At first before I went on the roller coaster I was to scared t=but then my friend said to just do it so I did. I never really liked roller coasters so I was really scared then when it was over I said let’s do it again. So after the second time we were done. We went to Subway and then I felt really sick. I went into the bathroom and threw up. That’s when I said roller coasters are not for me.

Food
Food is great it gives you the energy to do stuff in your life. Some foods are bad for you though like fats but it is good to have some fats. There are so many kinds of food one of the best is pizza. I don’t know why but it just is good with the sauce and cheese and whatever else you put on it. My favorite food is skinny cakes. They are really what me and my family call craps. They are really thin pancakes and you put syrup on them then powder sugar and then cinnamon and you role it up and you eat them with a fork and fall in love with them. Whenever there is food you need something to drink. Remember though don’t eat too much ad food your teeth will really hurt and then fall out.
Electronics
There are so many kinds of electronics in the world like robots, computers, Phones, iPods, TV, and my person favorite is video games. Robots they say will take over the world. I don’t believe it but it’s not like I know. Computers are great for school and home I like doing my work on the computer then on paper. Phones are second best they are a great thing to have. You can give it has a gift it is a really good one too. Without phones I don’t know where teens would be. Phones are great for communicating what is going on and when the movie is or when the party is. Now you can surf the web right there on your phone. iPods are great for working out and doing a bunch of other stuff. You listen to your iPod before a big game on the bus ride for a field trip for school. And if you just feel like listen to music an iPod is for you. Sure TV can make families not take that much but it does bring them closer together. Like if there is a show on you and your family can watch it every week. Video games don’t even get me started. They really do bring friends and brothers closer because if you want to play video games you go and play with a friend, brother, or sister. See parents think electronics are bad when they really aren’t.

Football Nightmare
This book is a really good book for any kids like football or any other sports. This a great fast read for kids. What is the message in this story? What if I cant relate to this story? I guarantee you will like this book. This book is really heart racing and you can always guess what is going to happen next which isn't bad.
The first chapter was getting my heart racing. This has never happened to me before but I am a football fan and player. This was crazy if I was in Keith's position I would do same thing when he missed the ball I would just sit there on the ground. Not facing my team mates and my coach. I don’t think it was smart to do that because if you know about football if you run out of bounds the clock stops. So instead of passing it to Keith I would of just run it next to the side lines and when you started to get in trouble you run out of bounds and get closer to the end zone. I feel bad for Keith they were undefeated and he missed the game winning pass and if he caught it they would have won the game and the championship. He had nobody in front of him and the closes guy was 10 yards behind him.
In the 3rd chapter When Keith and Heck headed to the pool I knew something would go wrong and something did when this one kid (who didn’t play for the bucks and was with Cody). When Cody through a big beach ball in the air to Keith one of the kids that was with Cody said "think you can hang on to this one, Keith? In the 4th chapter made me think wow what good friends Keith and I only wish I had friends like that. How they make him feel like losing the game wasn’t all his fault that was just a small part. This book made me feel like I wanted to go to Keith and help him out in the beginning.
This book made me feel sad for Keith because when he missed the pass I felt like going up to him right away and telling him it is ok and even getting some of the other players to come too. At the end made me feel so happy for Keith when he intercepted the pass. This book is the one of the best books I have ever read I would give it 5 stars hands down.

Ladies Man Essay Response
In this book it is really confusing because reading the title “Ladies Man” sounds like some love story. The first part of it is about the best boat in the world called The Tube. Why do they call it the tube? Who’s a man character in this? The book is written like they are talking to you in person and there are no letters or words written in front of you.
First it starts talking all weird and I don’t know what the man is saying when he writes this. He talks in third person a lot too. Like when he is talking he says “Mrs. Scrivener-Yapling, with a hyphen” When it is clearly written with a hyphen. I think it is cool how he writes this short story like that. The book is weird because the story is about ladies man you think but half of the book it’s about this boat called The Tub. I didn’t get this book at all. It was so confusing.
This book to me was very confusing. Yes, I know I have said that a hundred times but it’s true. My feelings for this book are all over the place if you don’t believe me then you should read it yourself. Some parts of the book I was happy and others I was sad. Like I was sad because, well not really in a part of the book, just that when you read it you feel like you are there. Mrs. Scrivener-Yapling sounds like a good mother or grandmother. I would like to meet her in person if she is real. The captain of The Tub I want to meet him too he seems, in this book, like the kind of captain that will go down with his ship.
Altogether I thought that this was a really good book. I think if the author made this book longer and made it into a chapter book it will go far. I would say it is one of the best books I have read well second. It was still good I would recommend it to anybody who wants a quick book to read.
