Book Pitch

For One More Day
Mitch Albom





 


I came across this book because I really enjoyed Mitch Albom’s book: The Five People You Meet in Heaven. For One More Day is about Chick who gets to spend one more day with his deceased mother. Within that day, he goes through an adventure where he learns so much more about his life than he had ever known before. If you are a person who likes an easy-to-read, touching stories; then this is the book for you. I felt so good about this book because once I started to read it; I did not want to put it back down. It is just one of those books where you want to read to the end in one day.









I feel this picture represents the relationship with Chick and his mother when they are spending their last day together. They walk around together and talk about their past and Chick cannot love her mother more. During that day, Chick realizes that all throughout his life that he had been treating his mother poorly. He realizes all the things that his mother did for him, and all the things he did to hurt his mother.

After reading this book and seeing the relationship between Chick and his mother and what they have gone through, I realized how much parents sacrifice for their kids. I learned how as kids, you sometimes don’t appreciate your parents as much as you should because they really do so much to take care of you.
