Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Shanelle

I'll admit I agree it did have a lot of swearing. But if they didn't it wouldn't sound as realistic. The work of Steinbeck wasn't to be proper but rather to teach others of values thats hard to overcome. But by puting others in that situation and having to put it in a book I rather say it is an inspiration. I was thinking of becoming a author. I realized the more human qualities you put in it the more it makes you realize this could happen to you. I had to read this story for school and I thought it was a lot of swearing that I couldn't take it. But as I kept reading it sounded like a lot of teens are going through. You have people you have to look after and take care of and do whats best for them and not all about you. Thats something I learned and fully understood from the book. When Lenny wanted to tend the rabbits the more he spoke of it the more it seemed real to him. So for a person like him thats something he could accomplish like a child with a dog. The swearing was all background the lessons learned from it is the characters that everyone should be paying attention to not the background or the details on the props. That's why I enjoyed it.
