Summary: monster
Review: Walter Dean Myer has successfully captured the plight of a sixteen year old black boy, Steve Harmon, who is standing trial for murder. In an attempt to distance himself from the emotional pain, he writes it in the form of a movie that he is filming. Interspersed with the movie plot, there are handwritten pages of his experience of jail, which create a very personal connection to the boy for the reader.
It is an interesting book in that the reader is both juror and witness, and it is never clearly revealed whether he is innocent or guilty, even though he is exonerated. The book raises many moral questions as to how far culpability or responsibility extends and on a more personal note gives us insight into the torment and pain of this young boy. The black and white pictures shown through the book by Christopher Myers (his son) did not enhance my personal enjoyment of the book, but it is still a worth while read if you don't mind a quick and easy book.

Review: I have read many books but this book is definitely one of my
favorites. When I first started reading this book I could not put it down, but the last pages are what really made me love this book. It had such a strong message and each time I read it, it sends chills down my spine. I strongly support the decision for this book to receive the Coretta Scott King award. I am happy that other people realize what a great book this is and that Walter Dean Myers has won many awards for it. I strongly recommend this book to anyone, I already suggested this book to one of my friends and he read it, and said he really liked it too.

Summary: EXCLUSIVE STORY of HISTORY
Review: Have you ever been accused of something that you never done? You are about to read a story about someone that have been in that situation. An old man name Alguinaldo Nesbitt was running his store. He got robbed. while he was struggling with the thiefs over his gun he got shot and died!! Now Steve Harmon is in trial with James King, accussed of Nesbitts murder. Monster describes Steve Harmon's trial. Steve Harmon is sixteen-years of age. Now that some whats relates to me because I'm young and for just to imagine that I'm accussed of a murdering someone and the police puts in jail and I cant do nothing about it. I'll go crazy it's like if I were stuck in a hole and theres no solution to get out. I dont want to imagine how Steve was feeling. Away from his family , friends, school and parents. No way!! This book is the best. It grab my attention alot!! I did'nt want to stop reading at all. I wanted to keep going!

Summary: reviewing monster
Review: I would recommend this book to anyone who has dealt with prison life. Not as if they have been in prison, but if they have famuly members in jail or if they have friends there. Monster, for me, really gave me insight to what the life of a young prisoner would be like.

Review: I would recommend to either a guy or a girl, i think they would both find it interesting. I would also recommend this to a person who likes mysterious types of books because Steven Harmon a sixteen year old boy is caught in a problem with the police. They have accused him of being a lookout or a store robbery in which a man was killed. I would also recommend this to anyone who likes Non-fiction books because it's based on a true story. Steve Harmon was a real guy and the robbery really did happen. I would also recommend this to anyone who likes intensity types of books, at the end when they are waiting for the jury's decision it was intense to see if he was innocent or guilty.

Summary: Very Unique and Interesting
Review: Imagine you are sitting in a court room on trial for FELONY MURDER! Hard to believe right? Well, theres no imagining for Steve Harmon. It's all real for him. He's only 16 years old and in jail. He goes to court everyday with everyone hating him. The prosecuter even called him Monster. He's on trial for the murder and robbery of a drugstore and clerk in Harlem. Hes in the court room with many people however he is all alone and scared all the time. So did he do it? At 16 years old, is his life now ruined? The only way to find out is by reading Monster by Walter Dean Myers. I liked this book and I felt it was very unique. It is written as a movie screenplay that Steve is writing during his trial. If someone were to read this book I believe that they would enjoy it and I bet it would really make them think because it really did make me think. Its a good book.

Summary: Monster
Review: I think this book is good. It`s about a guy named Steve and he is on a trial for murder. On December 22, somebody got shoot in the drugstore and they are trying to figure out who it was. they suspect that it was Steve, Mr.Bobo or Mr.King. The one who shoot the guy who was working in the store took two pack of cigarettes too. O`brien is Steves lawyer. She is trying to help Steve to get out of the case but it`s still like she doesn`t belive Steve. The police takes Steve to jail. He has to sleep there. Steve thinks it`s scary to be in jail because all the other guys are fighting and talking about what they have done and that makes Steve feel bad because he didn`t do anything. Steve said he wasn`t in the drugstore on December 22.
So later they found out that Steve wasx not guilty. He wasn`t even in the store on December 22.
