Of Mice And Men
we have read a book thats named "Of mice and men" in the english class.
This book is about the Huge and small minded Lennie, and the small and smart George.
They walk down the old America looking for a job so they can realize their dream.
Both of them have a common dream, they want to make a ranch and live the easy farm life.
But Lennie and George always get in trouble, sending them down the country searching for jobs.
Lennie is a huge man, with brute strenght who follows George wherever he goes.
George is the thinker, the man who takes care of Lennie and joins him to make a living.
Ive read half the book, and find it very good. The Author is awesome at describing the landscape and all the places the guys travel trough.
