Before she went to Well Care Center she daydreamed and got very bad grades. Also when she was little, Plot:I enjoyed Life is but a Dream by Brian James, because it told me about how Sabrina lived before she went to Well Care center for her treatment. Before she went to Well Care Center she daydreamed and got very bad grades. Also when she was little, her friend always asked her to draw a picture of what she was day dreaming about. It was so amazing, she said it was amazing and cool. As they grew older her friend didn’t even ask for a drawing of the day dreams anymore. It was like she didn’t even want to know anymore. Her parent decided to send her to the Well Care Center, because she was getting bad grades and they thought it was just a thing she would grow out of, but when she got older it got worse. Her grades fell and were poor and even her friend thought she was being childish.
I thought it was cool how when she got there she had barely any friends, but then she met a girl named Amanda. Amanda was shy, but she was somewhat like Sabrina and a lot of other people there. Alec was a boy she met at the Well Care Center after she met Amanda. Alec and Sabrina, although they’re alike in many ways, they have many things that are different. For example Sabrina sucks on her sleeve which is her bad habit. Also Alec has an arched back, unlike Sabrina who stands up straight.
They didn’t’ like the Well Care Center, because they had to take medicine which would change them into normal people, and people they don’t want to be. When they ran away I thought that they would actually get farther away from the hospital, but then when they were in the grass the cops found them and took them back the hospital. Also I think it was a bad Idea for Sabrina to stop taking her medication, because they were helping her get better. After they got to the hospital Amanda and Sabrina were on their way to group when Amanda started talking bad about Alec, and Sabrina wanted to know why. Amanda told her it was because Alec threatened the school and said that he was going to kill some of them and harm the school.
In the end I thought it was good that Sabrina went back to the hospital to actually do her time and take her medication. In result, she got better and she also came closer to the doctor’s nurses etc., and even her parents.
recommendation:I recommend this book to females at the ages 13+, because of the sexually conduct in some parts, and the tough words in this book. Although it should be read by females both genders would probably in joy it due to the conflict, and how people actually live when they need help. They also don’t want the help that they need. Also they don’t think they should be in the place they are and they need to take the first step to get out of the place they don’t want to be in. ...more "
