Why Chosen
I chose this book because I was drawn to it at a very young age after receiving a free copy due to my accumulation of accelerated reader points. Frederick Douglass' life and accomplishments have inspired me to diligently work toward my goals and his quote "there is no progress without struggle" epitomizes hard work, dedication, motivation, and perseverance toward achieving one's goals despite life's circumstances.
