8/28 Reader Response “This I Believe”

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

They were all first person

They all were about the authors personal beliefs  Isabel Allende that giving is what makes life fulfilling

They all mentioned some form of life experience jackie robinsonseeing baclk and white people together at a baseball game

They were all fairly short

Based on the reading It appears that the i beleive essays are supposed to be about one’s own personal beliefs. That is why they are in the first person perspective. It also appears that personal experience to help explain the belief that one is writing about is also important to them. The goal of the essay i feel is to explain some important part of what you believe to others using personal life experience to support and reinforce those beliefs.
