"Glass Castle" by Jeanette walls(first 20 pages)
This is a book about a girl and her memories of being a child. She had, and still has, very irresponsible and stupid parents who are disfunctional. For example, the mom lets the girl cook hot dogs at the age of 3 with no supervision. Not to my surprise, she was burned all over and went to the hospital. Even worse then that, the parnets took her out of the hospital before she was fully recovered, which is just plain old dumb. The last unadult like thing her parents did was not take her brother to the hospital when he broke his head. As you can see, these are examples are how these parents are not normal and have serious issues. Jeanette, the girl, takes after her parnets a lot, so that may pose to be a problem later in the book. So far, I think the book is great and would be loved by any kid or adult because it interests mostly everyone and is an exciting read.

Nice work picking out memorable events. Do you think the parents will change as the story continues?
