Rating:  Summary: The Great Book Review: Of mice and man by John Steinbeck was published in 1939. The story takes place in the salinas valley, california , during the Great Depression. The drought inthe Great Plain forces them move to the west.The people who move to the west are called migrant workers.Our characters, Lennie and George, are migrant workers too. They are the only people who work together that make them not become lonely because they have each other to look after. Lennie is a huge man with a weak mind and Gerge is small with strong thoughts. Both are totally different people. Lennie always cause problems that let George get in trouble.Lennie doesn't know how to control his power that made him kill many mice,than the pup.The troubles are getting larger and larger. who will he kill next? I give this book five stars because it is a very good book for me to learn English. I learned many vocabulary words but most important thing I learned i sabout friendship. Friends need to help eachother and they both did. Friendship are not easy to maintain in a good status.
Rating:  Summary: My Opinion Review: In the book Of Mice and Men by Jonh Steinbeck is about two men that looking for jobs from ranch to ranch.This story takes place in Soledad California,during the Great depresion.The story has two characters: the most important characters are George & Lennie. George is "small, quick, dark of face and strong hands" & the other guy is Lennie "A huge man he has a mind of a child & he likes to touch soft things." Everything that he knows is because George has thought him. They have dreams, that want to accomplish. Do you think yhat George wants to live & accomplish the dreams with Lennie? I rate this book 4 stars & I really recommend this book to teens because there's only one in a million that knows what friendship is really about. I learned from this book is how to be a better friend.
Rating:  Summary: My Opinon Review: Of Mice & Men by John Steinbeck, is a novel that takes place in Soledad,California, during the 1930's which is also during the 20th century. It allso won the Nobel Prize of Literature in 1962. The story is based on migrant workers during the Great Depression & allso shows us what true friendship is about, for ex.: Lennie & Geogre. Geogre was "short & quick, dark of face with restless eyes & sharp. He was small but with strong hands, slender arms, a thin & bony nose." Lennie is the opposite of Geogre because his "A huge man, shapeless of face, with large pale eyes, with wide sloping shoulders, & he walked heavily." He also has mental problems. Although Lennie has special needs George doesn't leave his side because he has a good heart & he is loyal to Lennie. But, there's times that Geogre feels that he wants to punish, struggle or even kill him because of the things he does. Also, the workers aren't so please with Lennie. What limit do you Geogre might have with Lennie? I truly recommend this book to anyone but especially those who doesn't know the definition of friendship. In this Great novel I learned that a friend isn't only there for you when you're you want to have fun but, a friend is when he/she is there for you in you're up's & down's. I rate this book with 5 stars.

Rating:  Summary: An Epic Review of an Epic Book Review: Of Mice and Men is an epic tale about the strength of friendship. Set on a farm in the West, this story shows that no mattter what, friendship lives on, right up until death. The main characters are a small, quickwitted man named George and his best buddy, a large oaf named Lennie. Lennie, who is mentally challenged, is constantly getting made fun of, and most of the time he doesn't even realize he is being made fun of. George looks out for Lennie, and they plan to one day get a house of their own, and Lennie will get to tend the rabbits. However, Lennie has one big problem; he loves to pet things, but sometimes the things don't like to be pet. This is the source of all his troubles, and at the end George is left with a tough decision. The ending of this book is amazing, and I really enjoyed it.

Will George and Lennie make their dream come true or will Lennie¡¦s weak mind and strong body destroy their dream? The book Of Mice and Men is a good book. I will rate it as four stars. In this book, it has a lot of conflicts and events. Also it tells us how important friendship is event if it is a very hard time. Friendship will help you get through anything.
Rating:  Summary: A story you'll never forget Review: This is a book you'll never forget reading. Its a classic from beginning to end. The characters are like many people we know. Some are kind and caring, some simple and some are mean and manipulating. This tale helps us remember that sometimes all we have, is each other. And, that "Friendship" is more than a word.
