How To Write A Shoe Dog
Dear Mr. Knight,

I read your book Shoe Dog and it makes me want to start a business like you. I really like all the description and in depth of every situation that happened. A lot of biographies don't do that and that is what I like. I could read your book forever. You should come out with another one because the first one is only to the 80’s. I am wondering if any of the people that you mentioned in the book still work their? Even though it's a biography it still kept me on the edge of my seat when it was the trial against Onitsuka. I found things out about Nike that i never would have known. Your book had a lot of big words and it challenged me to read your book and i never really had that before. I have a couple questions though. Pretend

    The common emotion that the poodle and the Scotch terrier cause the narrator to feel is embarrassment. The narrator even says that Jeannie, the Scotch terrier, gave him his "moment of keenest embarrassment" when she delivered a seventh puppy on a street corner (page 1, paragraph 1).
