This book the Black Boy is about Richard Wright. Richard grew up in an African American family and he was poor growing up. He was born on a plantation near Natchez, Mississippi, he moved several times growing up and mainly just stayed in the southern towns. Growing up he would also work many Part-time jobs. At fifteen he went to Memphis and earned enough money to move to Chicago and dig ditches there, run errands, he also washed dishes, sold insurance, clerk, and worked at the unites states post office.

This book is for people that like life stories and their journey throughout life and how they got to where they are at now. He was always reading and he began to write in 1936 and published a long short story “Big Boy Leaves Home”. I haven’t read the whole thing yet but what I have read I have liked. I think this story would be inspirational because he tells how he became famous, and his life story.

Tim Tebow Through My Eyes (Inspirational)

Tim Tebow's  autobiography, Through My Eyes is a sports novel about his famous NFL career and personal life. My opinion on this book is that he really talks about his life through his eyes and his emotions. In this book, he is talking about his success and how hard he worked at everything he did when he was growing up. In the NFL, he became a huge success playing for the Broncos as a quarterback that would like to run the ball a lot. When Tim Tebow  was growing up he was home schooled by his favorite teacher his mom, and in high school he was still home schooled but played football for Nease High school.

                Tim Tebow loved football but also played baseball but couldn’t decide what he liked better. “But football was my passion. More specifically, playing football as a throwing quarterback has always been my passion, and I’m not going to let baseball get in my way of making my timely decision”. Tim Tebow was an all-star at a lot of sports at Nease. Tim Tebow is a great role model he inspires a ton of people with his athletic abilities and his faith. People should read this book because he talks about how hard he worked to get where he is.
