I honestly don't think that I would change anything. My life is great as it is and I am very happy with everything that has happened. If I could change one little thing then it would end up changing pretty much everything that has happened in my life, nothing would be the same. Like for instance, if I would have ended up staying and living with my dad then I would not even be going to this school, I would not have the friends I have and I doubt I would be writing this paper. I like my life the way it is and would not change a single thing about it.

The Cave, The Cabin, and The Tattoo Man
The Cave, The Cabin, and The Tattoo Man is a fun, adventurous, and carefree book. Tim Callahan, author, does a fantastic job at capturing all the small and specific details behind Timmy's adventures throughout Maysville, Kentucky in the summer of 1959. There is much to love about The Cave, The Cabin, and The Tattoo Man.In this book there are many interesting parts. My favorite part is when Timmy finds the cave. It's my favorite part because he finds all the old Indian paintings. Timmy explained them so well, that I could imagine almost every picture.

My favorite part of the book is when Timmy goes to Mrs. Robbins' house to help her with some chores. When Timmy walked in, he found Mrs. Robbins lying on the kitchen floor. when Timmy walked in, he found Mrs. Robbins lying on the kitchen floor. As Timmy looked around, he found he Bible open to the verses that he was asked to memorize [John 3:16-16]. Next to the verses was written, "I'll meet you there."

My favorite thing about this book is that its not it's not completely boring. It has some ability to keep me paying attention. It makes me think about today's Kentucky and how different it was in the book. It was interesting enough for me to keep reading, but not my favorite.

My favorite part about this book is when Timmy recites John 3:16-17 in oak Hills Church. Preacher Black asks Timmy to memorize the verses and say them during the next Church service. John 3:16-17 say, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved." He tried very hard to memorize these two verses over two weeks. In the end, with a combination of nerves and his speech impediment, he said, "For God so loved the turd that he gave his only forgotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the sorld to condemn the world; but that the wold through him might be saved." Despite his mistakes, everyone complemented him on his courage.
My favorite thing about the book is that it is so adventurous. It is a great suspense book. It is always keeping me on the edge of my seat, waiting to see what is going to happen next. My favorite thing about the book is that he is carefree and adventurous. He will go out and do what he wants and not worry about it.
