The Help by Kathryn Stockett



The Help by Kathryn Stockett

This was such an amazing story from beginning to end. After I was done I suddenly felt a sense of wanting to be a better person and to work even harder to be more kind and understanding to others. While I was reading I kept thinking, what would I sacrifice to make change happen that I felt passionate about? Could I risk everything I hold dear including my livelihood? Change can be big or small. The important thing is to try! That is what my mom taught me. I really felt a deep connection with the characters and their journey. I found myself taking sides while hoping there would be justice in the end. Just as I find myself doing in real life, even though I know not every situation has a happy ending. However, the lesson could simply be to never loose the drive and courage to make our world a better place for all! This is a MUST READ!!
