The Blind Side By- Michael Lewis
Theme of this book is never to give up no matter what happens in life, always take a chance and believe every second because everything can take a huge turn.A young man name Michael Oher has no chance in life, living on the street doing his best to live by whatever he can.
Style is very different using words and meanings that help express the feelings of the people and even the author. Writing in many ways to show there is a different expression for each and every paragraph. I love the fact that the book is more about real life then just a fairy tale.
Michael Oher is the main character in this book. As the story goes on, you then meet a wonderful loving and caring family the Tuohy's. Michael and the Tuohy family become very close to once another. They take him in as their own and raise him to be an amazing football player and young man.t Becoming apart of the family he fitted perfectly in. Enjoyed watching football and even other sports. Tuohy's became a family that Michael never really had.
Setting is during the fall time with lots of rain and leaves falling everywhere. Plus it is the season every fan loves the most which is football. Michael does not go to school, until he meets the Tuohy family, never played football, I guess you can say he never really had a child hood like most teens do. Michael was very protected of his family and did not want anything bad to happen, so he did his best to protect.
The Blind Side, is an amazing book, at first I did not think I would like just because the fact that football is the setting. Reading this book chanced my thoughts about many ideas that pop in and out of my head. We should love everything about our life because some day we might not have it. Michael had nothing and whenever he did get the chance to have anything, he did not take advantage.
If you enjoy sports and love hearing about miracles in others life I believe you should read this book and see where Michael and the Tuohy family ended up and also how much they had to battle.
