Memoirs

One of the memoirs that caught my attention was Death's Lesson by Mitchel W. 14
(his memoir can be found at http://teacher.scholastic.com/writeit/readpoem.asp?id=8816&genre=Memoir&Page=1&sortBy=)

The reason why i feel like this caught my attention was because it was much more emotional and more personal than the other memoirs i read today. This memoir is about a boy whose grandparents moved to Albany. At one point his grandfather suffers a stroke and the family attends his funeral. Its quite tragic.
