I chose this book to do for a biography presentation my freshmen year of high school, and I was so glad that I did because I had so many things to talk about. I probably bored all of my classmates because I basically just told the entire story in about ten minutes, but I found it to be extremely fascinating. Walls' story is quite unlike any other that I had ever heard before. It's actual chaos and I was surprised at the fact that she survived her childhood. Her mom and dad were...unbelievable in such a horrible way. It just amazed me. I highly recommend reading this book because it will just take your breath away.
