Where's My Wand

I am currently reading the book Where's My Wand by Eric Poole. It is a book about the rather complicated life of the author in the book, who has to face many different things in his life such as parents fighting, bullying and different interests. He's the protagonist in the book and I have to say his life can be similar to mine in some ways even though people may think it is not to theirs.

One is parents problems between my parents. After Eric's dad got laid off the mother became very agitated because I guess the tremendous amount of stress. And then they started getting angry and arguative towards each other that's why even his dad left after  while of arguing, he went and left for a day. During Christmas his mother was ungrateful of the Dad trying  to be nice and giving expensive parents, she leaves in the end angry at the Dad. My parents were like this a lot less though until they divorced. Until they got divorced. It was due to the arguing after a while.

Another relatable thing is Eric's choosing of friends, he chose a girl that wasn't afraid to say something and stand up for themselves. That's how I was, my friends were usually the loudest in elementary school and probably the strangest in some other ways also. I was pretty loud and well spoken,which is the friends that I liked the most.

In conclusion, characters can be similar to you, even though you think they may not be similar to you. I had similar friends and similar experiences in the past. I hope to find more similar experiences.
