A Walk to Remember
Chapters 1 & 2 (pgs. 1-44)

In the first chapter it talks about Landon's father. His father is a politician and was only home 3 months out of the whole year. Then it talks about Hegbert and how he was a minister. He wrote a Christmas play & everyone loved it. Hegbert had one daughter, whose mother died during childbirth. His daughter, Jamie, was a nice girl who did everything perfectly. She always had a Bible with her and never said anything bad about anyone. She always wore the same type of clothes and never wore make-up. She was going to play the angel in the Christmas play this year and the drama teacher was thrilled. Landon is also in the drama class with Jamie and he said she looked different this year. As the second chapter starts, Landon's father is telling Landon that he must run for student body president. So, Landon did, and he won. Because Landon was president he needed to have a date for the homecoming dance. He tried everyone but they were all taken. His last reasonable aption was Jamie. He went to her house after school one day and when he asked her she was very hesitant. She finally said yes, but she followed it with on one condition...that you don't fall in love with me.

Responce

• I think Landon is a different guy than everyone, especially Jamie's father, thinks he is. If he was reasonable enough to take Jamie to the dance and be really nice to her, he must have some compassion inside of him. Jamie is a nice girl and I think that even though she is very religious she needs to loosen up a bit. You can have fun and be Godly at the same time you just have to know how.
