Dear, Ms.Zrihen

I am reading the book called “Resilience” by Alonzo Mourning. The genre is an autobiography. The topic is about a basketball player who suffered from kidney failure. The main idea is that even if you are rich you can have kidney failure. The author’s purpose is to inform you because it tells you about his life. The point of view is first person.

 When Alonzo was young his farther absorbed that his son didn’t eat.  So he kept on going to the doctors. The doctors did a lot of operations on him. He went to a lot operation that he had tubes coming out of his mouth. On one Valentine’s Day he had a donor give him a kidney. He had a foster mother. When he grew up he became a Miami heat basket ball player. He had a lot of money. Now he has 2 children of his own. Alonzo was born in ohio.
