The book I read was ..And Now Miguel. The book was about this kid who wanted to write poetry, but his dad didnt want him to because he thought men shouldnt write poetry . During the story Miguel sneaks behind his dad`s back and writes poetry for school. So when his teacher calls his house to tell his poetry.So when his dad finds out he gets furious at him and locks him in his room. When Miguel starts to write with his teacher at the end of the story. This was ok but i wouldnt read it again.

REALISTIC, Historic Fiction for Readers with Patience
This Newberry Award winner is a classic that may best be appreciated by readers with patience for a slower lifestyle. This is not for action-adventure junkies waiting for a roller coaster ride of thrills and suspense. I enjoyed this book because I am familiar with the setting in Northern New Mexico around Taos, which is well described in the book. For hundreds of years ranch owners have sent their shepherds and sheep to the green grazing fields in the local mountains during the summer months. The desire to go to the mountains with the sheep would have been a common personal conflict with older children. As a work of realistic fiction, it portrays a real lifestyle with real dreams and conflicts in a time and place before our modern technology, noise, and adrenaline surges of a rushed, stressed based lifestyle. This book is for the sophisticated reader who is looking for a good story in a work of historical fiction.

The Most Boring BookI ever Read
I think this book was so boring! I also think that the summary on the back of the book was a lie. He did not have "devasting" consquences. Please! I mean, you tell me what was so "devasting". I'm all ears. This book was so boring. Who wants to hear about how you brand sheep? Uh, no one! This book all most put me to sleep. El boringo.
