I have selected the book Tuesdays With Morrie by: Mitch Albom. I picked it because friends have read it, and they have recommended it to me. I think the book will be about an old man, a young man, and life's greatest lesson. I think this because that is what is on the front cover of the book. The book is about Morrie, who is near death, and Mitch, who visits him every Tuesday. Together they build a great friendship, and Morrie teaches Mitch one special thing, lessons on how to live life. The books cover is very plain with just the title, author, and a quote. I think this is a way to draw the reader into the book. When I saw the plain cover I instantly wondered what the book was about. I read the front and back cover and knew that I wanted to read this book.
