"Forrest Gump" . Winston Groom

     The first book that I read was "Forrest Gump". This book's author is Winston Groom. It's published by Pearson Education Limited in association with Penguin Books Ltd. It is level 3. This book has 41 pages and 1200 words.
     This book is about a man whose name is Forrest Gump. He is a bit disabled person and quite many people, including himself, call him an idiot. As he says:" Maybe I am an idiot, but I'm not stupid". He is actually a really brave,clever and good-hearted man. This book retells his adventures and happenings. I liked this book very much because it was interesting, funny, a bit sad and a warm story to read. It made me think about all kind of people, tolerance and about the way that we treat people around us. I have also seen the film "Forrest Gump". The book differed a little from the film, but the main things were the same. I would recommend this book to my classmates because it was a really good and interesting book.
     I think that this book was a little too easy for me to read. But I found some new words for me from this book. For example: harmonica- suupill, shrimp- krevett. I also find some pretty good quotes to remember, like: "Gump, you idiot!" shouted Colonel Cooch. "Yes, sir," I said. "That's what I am. But I just try to do the right thing." And the other quote in the beginning, which I think describes Forrest quite well: "I was born an idiot, but I'm cleverer than most people think."
