BR 2-13: Fixing Cars (Holt, Nickel, 2007)



"I guess playing around with cars can be useful after all." (Holt, Nickel, p.24)

This is the story of a girl who really likes fixing cars. In other word, a personality and one's talent is very important. At first, her parents judged her based on girls' stereotype such as girls should have learned to cook and clean however she wasn't into them. Then they found that her special qualification was also important after they were helped by their daughter. Her teacher, grandpa and her friend had already noticed her potential. 

After reading this, I thought that personality and potential were important and we should admire someone's ability. That's why her teacher called her fixing cars a gift.
