Blizzard By Jim Murphy
BLIZZARD (BOOK REPORT)
Did you enjoy this book or would you have wanted to read another book?
I read a book called “Blizzard” by Jim Murphy. I really enjoyed reading this book for various reasons. This book was great to read because I got to learn about a storm that changed America. Also, this great non-fiction book about the East Coast blizzard of 1888 is fun to read because it showed what the blizzard did to the people who experienced it. This book has lots of detail and engaging text and illustrations. The engrossing story of this monster-blizzard is more amazing than any other non-fiction book that I’ve ever read. According to the text, “Most people went to bed Monday assuming the storm would be gone by morning.” This cite shows that the people who experienced the Blizzard thought the storm would be gone by Monday but it wasn’t. These various reasons show why the book “Blizzard” was fun to read.
