Book Review: Small Steps

Small Steps: the year I got polio

By: Ariana

You walk into your local library and so many books is overwhelming you. On top of that, your teacher is making you read a nonfiction book. ugh. I don’t like nonfiction books either. With one exception. Really awesome narrative autobiographies.  So when you walk into the library, do not be afraid and go find the book Small Steps. Don’t get confused. Not Small Steps by Louis Sacher, (Although if looking for another good read that is a good one!) Small Steps by Peg Kehret.

    In this book, Peg Kehret tells some frightening three years of life. Peg got polio. She is a survivor, but in this book Peg learns about friendship while she suffers through painful treatment and medicine. This book, is told like a story. This is so amazing because you feel like you are reading a realistic fiction book.
