If you wanted to suggest this story to a friend, what would you say it is mostly about?

 The book Dewey is a nonfiction story about a cat who was abandoned at a library, and was found in the morning by the author, Vicki Myron, who is the librarian at this time. Vicki, then asked the person who was in charge of this library if they could allow Dewey, the cat Vicki found, stay in the library. Dewey then got popular, and people around the Spencer, Iowa would make a special trip to see Dewey. If you like books about cats, then this one might be your style.

Would you choose the main character of the story to be your friend? Why or why not?

No, I wouldn't choose any characters to be my friends in the Hunger Games series because it would require me to be in the novel, and I don't think I would want to live through what happens in these novels. In Mockingjay, it would be though to deal with Katniss because she would probably kill me like how she wanted to kill Peeta to save him at the beginning of this novel. Although, I do know she can be caring, like when she helped Johanna when she wanted to leave the hospital, Katniss said that she would room with her so she could be able to leave.

Create a playlist of 10 songs for this book and explain how each relates.

I actually only know one song that I know that matches the Hunger Games series perfectly. The song is by Rise Against with the title of Re-Education. This song matches the novels well because in the song, the singer says, "We crawl on our kneels for you, under a sky no longer blue. We sweat, all day long for you." This phrase connects because Katniss was raised in District 12, the poorest out of all 12 Districts. They are practically making the lives in the capitol more luxurious while District 12 has cobblestone roads.
