I really like this book. It’s about a black boy who has been bullied. He has to face his challenges to win his races
Meh
Inspiring book to not give up on your dreams.
this book about me and l like running and l am smart at school. and i am in year 7
This book is amazing and I hope this book wins!!!!
This book is soo good and it's relatable, dramatic and family friendly. It's a nice book that's easy to understand and relate to.
I really enjoyed "Running My Own Race" because it's well written. The main character, Kofi, loves running and has big dreams, but he also has to deal with school, friends, and family pressure. You can really tell how determned he is and how much he cares about following his own path.
It's set mostly at Kofi's school and in his community, which shows what it's like trying to fit in, make friends and face challenges like bullying, or being judged. It makes the story feel realistic and relatable.
The book explores themes like courage, friendship and staying true to yourself. It's inspiring and shows that even when things are tough, you can keep going and achieve your goals.
I loved this book. It showed me the challenges black people are facing.
This was one of the best books I have ever read. I liked it when he reached his goal in the end
in my opinion i really think running my own race is a really good book because with myself being a year 7 on the first day i didnt know where i was gping . it also links to me because im very sporty but for someone who isnt sporty might not like this book . i think out of 10 i would rate this book a 9 and i hope this book will win. i also think the theme is really interesting there is a lot of bullying because kofis rival on the track is racist to him. his family are reaLLY supportive and they want him to achieve his dream. unlike the other kids kofi comes from qite an un wealthy backround where as all the other kids are quite wealthy and has qite a lot of money
I really like running my own race because its a really good book and it can show people what to do if they face things like that
I like this book because I enjoy the characters , the setting, and the plot .
My favourite books out of all of the 4 remaining books are running my own race and IRL and I hope one of them wins.I like running my own race because I like to run and do athletics. I like IRL because i like books that are real.
I think the running my own race is the best for me because it's simmilar book and setting although I don't go to a private school other than that I can relate to him because I have expirienced raceil stuff but it doesn't really bother me but i can tell it bother the main character but it is a great book which I would recomend to all my friends.
