   ** __ Yazmin's Book Report Author:Lucia Raatam __ ** ** __ Oprah Winfrey __ **

**             My book report is on Oparh Winfrey. The author is Lucia Raatam. She was born on January 29, 1954, in Kosciusko, Mississippi. Then when she got bigger and noticed that oprah's mother, Vernita Lee, did not marry Oprah father, Vernon Winfrey. Oprah, is important because she helped the people know that she didnt care what skin color she was and she was going to try her best, even though her life was terrible. People taught she had in amazing voice and was good at acting.

Oprah always wanted to finish her school and do something for her life. She told the people that not all people her skin color are the same, and everyone needs to get along while. While she was in school there was not many black people in her school and had to go to separte schools. Oprah was rised by her grandparents on a little farm, while she was a baby, because her mom had left her there. Her life with her grandparents was amazing, until she got older and her mom Vernita Lee came to pick her up so she can live with her.

Everyone loved Oprah. She was really nice to the people and cared about everyone. Oprah's fans enjoyed her speeches of how she lived her life. People where shocked because of the stories she had gave. She attracts attention with her charismatic personality. When she appears in cameras clicks people push to see and touch her, and reporters ask questions. Her features have become as well known as those of world leaders. Everyone just loves her.

When Oprah was little she was a good reader she read in front of church when they told her to. She wanted to become a famous person, and get a lot of money. She started going to school where there really wasn't alot of people her skin color, but she really didn't care. Then she came into a t.v show where she had to interview reports, she started working there and made a little bit of money. She new she was going to get a lot of money by the age of thrity-two.

I like Oprah because shes smart and makes the right judgements. Everything she had said in her speech in t.v shows are true. Her life was hard, but she worked harder so it can be better. I also liked that she knew what she was doing and the law she had told the people to make was great, her law was for little kids not to get abused.

This book about Oprah is really interesting and gives an honest account. It gives alot of details about this person and how these person was in her life. This person gives in honest account because it tells about how Oprah lived as young until old, and some of the stuff she said was related to some peoples life. **
