I thought that essay was very well written and had many important
points that were made. When the writer said the most important thing you
can do is be cool to the pizza delivery dude, she used this as a metaphor to
tell people how to be better overall. Every point she made said the pizza
delivery dude was basically a reminder to everyone how to be a better
person. Some of the points that she was referring to in the essay were
kindness, empathy, being respectful and important life lessons like that.
These all teach us how to be a better person to others.
This essay was very personal to this sixth grade girl and I give her all of
the credit in the world for reading it. I thought while listening to her story
that when her dad played the Beetles song, her dog was going to magically
appear, but it didnt. When I learned that her father passed away months
after the return of her dog I was amazed to hear how she would always
remember that story and the song in the memory of her father.
