Autobiography

12 Comments


au·to·bi·og·ra·phy noun  the history of a person's life written or told by that person.

 

This month, students are going to read an autobiography as part of our English 103 class. Other students are going to write their own autobiographies this year. Everyone has a story to tell, that's why I think it's interesting to read a life story written by the person who lived it!

There are many autobiographies out there. A couple of my favorites are Boy by Roald Dahl and A Girl from Yamhill by Beverly Cleary. Have you read an autobiography that you enjoyed? If so, please let us know the title and author. 

If you haven't read an autobiography lately, check out this list and let us know which one sounds interesting and why. - Good Reads: Popular Autobiographies   NOTE: You can click on the book to read more info.
 

Enjoy  life!
