2nd post for the week

What I like about the book Shaq Uncut is that it is giving me a good background. If it didn't give me the background at the beginning of the story, it might confuse me at other points. So far, the background is that Shaq was born into a family and he never met his dad. Well, he did, but not until we has well past his younger years. He was raised by his mom, step-dad, and grandmother. His dad would sometimes beat him when he wouldn't act as he liked. Shaq would always go to his grandma as a safe place when his step-dad beat him. I have a feeling this background infromation is going to help me later in the story.

    I like when books give me background information. Authors always do it for a reason, so hopefully it will tie back into the story later on.

    Wow I don't understand why parents do that. I hope it plays a role later in the story. I can relate to yours because they give a lot of backround that I think will also play a roll later.
