The book that I readd is Thomas Jefferson, written by Jeri Chase Ferris, with 112 pages.It can be summarized that Jefferson was born in Virginia on April 13, 1743. He came from a rich family which owned planty of land, a lot of animals, and majority of slaves. However, Jefferson never conducted as luxery, and was a over person.Instead,he had tried to help slaves,and poor poeple in United States. In 1765, he completed a law degree;later, in 1772 he was married Martha.Consequently,in 1779 he became a governor of Virginia, and had chances to reform Virginia to be a model state for the United Staes.Later, in 1801 Jefferson elected as a president of the United States.Finally, he died in 1826 at Monticello.During his lifetime, he had helped a numver of Americans to have freedom to own land, to worship, and to non-worship. As a result, he has been regarding as a father of liberty.
Question# 14
In my opinion, I think that the author who wrote that book with several reasons. First, the author might think that Jefferson was a popular person. Second, the author might expect the story to encourage readers helping other people if they can do. Finally, it is likely that the book would be interesting to public, then the author would recieve big money.About the ideas for the book, I view that writer would collect the ideas from Jefferson's friends or relatives, and from some book as well. A significant message which the writer needs to share is " Father of Liberty. That's all.
