Synthesis Page Review
Ungifted by Gordon Korman is a book about a kid named Donovan. Donovan is a huge prankster. When Donovan pulls on a huge prank in school he thinks that he has gone to far. Later Donovan goes to another school called (A.S.D.)a special program for for talented kids. As he goes to the school he becomes a big hit but some teacher thing he is not the best student for the school. As he meets new people he is starting to feel like he fits in.
In the story Donovan feels like he belongs to the school. " For the first time since I'd landed at the academy, I truly belonged ". This is taking a step further because he is feeling like he belongs. And he feels like he belongs. Throughout the story Donovan is showing compassion for other people. " What matters the only part I really care about is that your happy ". This quote is compelling because the characters are really showing compassion for each other. This is showing that they care and want the best for one another. Another part in the story is one the character Donovan is talking about how he was glad to leave the party. This made me wonder if he did like the party or if he did not I think that he needs to be a little more social. The last thing that I noticed is that Donovan is starting to lose confidence in himself. Such as in the story Donovan says " Infront of the entire lunch crowd in the cafeteria they presented me with the 2012 moron of the year award ". I feel like Donovan is losing confidence and is feeling like he doesn't belong . I think he needs to step up and be more social and interactive with people and maybe he can gain more confidence . This is what I have noticed in this story this is what I have noticed in this story Ungifted.
In conclusion I really like reading the story it was very funny and it was something that I enjoy reading. The story I learned that there were a lot of ups and downs and that the character had to step up and be more interactive. I think this is a really good book for teenagers because it can show them that anyone could be what they want and show teenagers that they have talent.
