SEC S17W3: Tribute to the Book". by @rossnenye
| Tell us about that book you read that changed your life. |

One book that I read that really changed my mind was "The gifted hands". It is an Autobiography written by the author Ben Carson. The story narrates the story of a eight years old boy whom his father left his mother and other brother to go be with another woman. His mother did a lot of menial jobs so they can survive.
Ben Carson struggled with so many things, he was a dullard, but he didn't lose his faith in God and on himself. He turned his personal struggles into success by separating two craniopagus Siamese twins and becoming the director at John Hopkins hospital at a very young age. This book helped to shape my life. It motivates me not to give up despite the battles I'm fighting because one day, I believe I will achieve greatness.
| What is your favorite literary genre and author, share the reasons. |
|---|
My best literary genre is fiction. Some of my favorite fictional authors are;
- Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
- Wole Soyinka
- Chinua Achebe
I love fictional books because it helps me to learn so many things about different people, cultures, foods and language. It is also serves as a means of entertainment to me.
| If you had the opportunity to write a book, what would it be about? |
|---|
If I'm opportuned to write a book, I will write about myself, because I feel a lot of people especially the young ones will learn a lot from it. My life is the true definition of we don't look like what we been through. I was send to live with an older Cousin when I was seven. She maltreated and did all sorts of things to me. But look the way I turned out. I feel my story will teach people not to give up no matter what.

I would recommend "Think Big" written by Ben Carson. It is the continuation of Gifted hands. It is a book where the author wrote on the formulas of success. Anyone who wants to achieve success should read it.

Dear @rossnenye,, Greetings to this contest,,
Books help change all of our lives. Especially one more helpful in changing our perspective. One such book is the "Gifted Hands" you mentioned where the author reveals his autobiography in front of everyone in the form of a beautiful story. The story depicts a child leaving his family and later succeeding in the battle of life without losing faith in God Almighty.
Hope your autobiography book will also be very popular. keep up the good work.

¡Saludos amiga!😊
Que conmovedora es la historia del libro que cambió y, me hiciste recordar a mi padre porque, siempre me dice que en la vida puedo llegar a perder muchas cosas pero, jamás la fe en Dios ya que, esa es la base de toda nuestra existencia.
Haré lo posible por buscar este libro para leerlo y también regalárselo a mi padre porque, no me queda la menor duda de que le va a encantar.
Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica... Un fuerte abrazo💚
Hello dear,
In today's time, we all need such a book because we all want to achieve success and want to be successful in our lives. If we get the formula for success, then there can be no better gift for us than this. Whenever I get time, I will definitely read this book because this book, like its name, tells us to think big.
