I would love to read an autobiography about my grandma. She grew up in the early 1900's and would be over 100 years old if she were still alive. When I was younger she told lots of stories, but I don't remember, or didn't listen well enough. I wish she were still alive to talk to!

I'd like to read an autobiography about someone in iraq because i'd like to know how it feels to be down there. I'd recimend reading the book anne frank because it's her diary made into a book so you really know how she felt. But it doesn't exactly have a happy ending.

I would like to read a autobiography about my dad because he is very funny and i just want to learn more about him. He just doesn't have enough time to just sit and talk with him because he works until about 7:00p.m. and I'm basically about in bed by then almost sleeping so then i can't talk with him. I can't do it in the morning either because he's is already gone.

I love reading your blog posts! Mind if I contribute? I'd love to read my children's autobiographies. If they were written in the future, then I'd know what twists and turns their lives might take. If they wrote about their childhood, I'd know how I'm impacting their lives (and I could correct my parenting mistakes before I make them).
I miss you! :) Mrs. McHugh
Mrs. McHugh! I'm sure those would be very interesting autobiographies! Autobiographies are one of my favorite genres.
Cara S.
Thanks John-very helpful! Mrs. McHugh has a new baby girl named Riley, in case you didn't know:) I hope my son and daughter remember how much I love them and all the fun we have and not how just how "mean" I am them when they write our stories!
