  1. like the memoir because George Dawson never gave up his dream to read and write. George was born in the late 1800’s. His parents were not slaves, but his grandparents were once slaves. George was raised in Texas. His family was poor, and he never attended school. Georges started working at a very young age, drawing water from the well each morning for the house. George worked alongside his father in the fields. The work was hard, so was their life. They had to watch what they said and went in fear of the K.K.K. Twelve year old George went to work, and stayed with a white family to help out at home. His cousins came to live with his family because their parents died, so George was needed at home. George left home at twenty-one and worked in Tennessee building levees. It was two years before he returned back home.Life is So Good is a story about George Dawson’s dreams of receiving mail, learning to read and write at the age of ninety-eight, and his work ethic. I can relate to George’s hard work and his work ethic. I beleive in hard work and doing it right the first time.

    This book  tells of struggles he had to go through. It is not easy reading at first because the chapters jumped around. But overall, it is a good book to read.
