Becoming Naomi Leon review One of her favorite sayings was that the good and the bad of any situation were sometimes the same My thoughts dived into a jumble in the middle of my mind, wrestled around until they were wadded into a fisted knot, and attached themselves to my brain like a burr matted in a long haired dog I always thought the biggest problem in my life was my name, Naomi Soledad Leon Outlaw, but little did I know that it was the least of my troubles, or that someday I would live up t [...]

I really enjoyed this book It would make a great addition to a book club for middle school girls Told through the lens of Naomi, it takes readers on a journey of both finding out the past and setting up the future Great read
I really don t like the review, the stars, or my own reaction I m designating to this book I especially don t like that I m giving up on it afterwell, after not too many pages Maybe I m a little burnt out after reading something as fantastic as Burial Rites, or maybe I ve finally subconsciously made the switch to adult fiction Whatever the case, this book really grated on my nerves.The book stars Naomi Soledad Leon Outlaw, a fifth grader who lives with her great grandmother and physically disabl [...]
Becoming Naomi Leon is about a young girl named Naomi who lived a pretty normal life until her mother comes and Naomi finds herself on a journey to try to keep her family together The author of this fictional story is Pam Munoz Ryan This book is is full of adventure and always keeps you on your toes The theme of this story is to never give and keep trying.This book is told in 3rd person and the genre is realistic fiction.I like Becoming Naomi Leon because it s very adventurous and fun The plot o [...]
I once had an English professor who told us if she ever wrote clever in response to one of our writings, it was not a compliment This book began with a lot of clever metaphors that nearly made me put it away I persevered and it ended up a fairly decent read It seems like sometimes authors figure things out somewhere in the middle and quit doing the really annoying things like trying to be clever That was mostly the case here, and it improved the experience greatly The story situation was hard ab [...]
I liked the book how she changed her name and how it was nice of her mom returning back for Naoimi and buying her clothes and doing braids on her hair How her mom bought Owen a byicle and her mom wanted to take Naoimi to Las Vegas so that she can take care of Clive s daughter Naomi going to Oaxa to go find her dad she going to El Mercado,a pinaple lolipop La Posada,going to Aunt Teresa s house,doing the carving, finding his dad and meeting him for the first time and finding him in the Posada, an [...]
I really loved this book The dialogue was great, especially the quirky way that Gram speaks I loved Naomi s character and the closeness of her and her brother, a diagnosed funny looking kid The story was good, although a little too neatly solved I do feel inspired by Naomi the Lion s ability to stand up and tell her story so that her and her brother and her Gram can stay together when her messed up mom tries to take her away The characters and the setting made the novel great.
This was a really good read I loved Naomi as a character and following her through her struggles with her family My favorite quote from the book is How many others were walking around and not even knowing that someone far away cared for them Imagine all that love floating in the air, waiting to land on someone s life SENSITIVITY WARNING Maybe some language, some abuse mostly verbal
It may just be the fact that I finished a very good book, but I was not impressed I did enjoy the story, but it all seemed to be rushed I think it also is aimed for a lower age group, so I didn t have much interest in it The book itself was good though, and I would recommend it to readers ages 10 12, or anyone who wants a good story and a short, easy read.
Naomi s gram and brother are terrific characters, and I admired the way this story showed the warmth and strength of an alternative family structure My frustration with this book is that Skyla was almost too evil to be believed She was of a caricature than a character.
Como actuara en la misma situaci n Yo no actuara como actu Naomi Ella es una ni a muy t mida y no sabe hablar por s misma Ella se aguanta y tiene mucha esperanza para encontrar a su papa y que su mama no le va a llevar legos En contrario, yo no me quedara callada sobre las cosas malas que hiciera mi madre que me quiere separar de mi familia Yo avisara a mi guardian y dir a que no me dejen estar cerca de ella por un largo tiempo Tambien,yo jam s hubiese pensado que iba a encontrar a mi papa Yo me [...]

I love this book The first book I read by Pam Munoz Ryan was Esperanza Rising which I was assigned to read by my team at school for a contest held near the end of the year to answer questions about the books on a pre determined list Something to encourage kids to read Hell yeah we read, there were MEDALS.Anyways I love this book Esperanza Rising was approached with a groan and a sigh, but Ryan s style of writing hooked me into the story quickly And the same happened in Becoming Naomi Leon.Naomi [...]

I wanted to give this book three stars, because I really LIKED Naomi and I liked her brother and grandmother and friend Blanca I liked the central conflict about being un loved by parents family I don t know much about disability, but I liked the way it was presented as any other trial except for the person who was so blinded by her own prejudice she couldn t even really see how it would impact her life let alone her son s What I didn t like, and yeah, this is spoilery, is that the villains in t [...]

This book was amazing I loved the characters and the style in which it was told It seemed like I was READING a MOVIE What could be better PNaomi was a really neat heroine She doesn t talk much, but she loves her brother and grandmother very much and would do anything for them I really like how she carves soap, something she got from her father The scene where she accidentally cuts the sculpture so that the dog loses a leg and her father tells her not to worry about it, that that is what makes it [...]

Becoming Naomi Leon is an absolutely wonderful book every late elementary middle school L.A teacher should keep a copy on his her bookshelf.And not just because Pam Munoz Ryan is such a champion of Hispanic culture, but because her stories, much like Jacqueline Woodson, encourages its readers to search for and embrace who they truly are And every child, regardless of his her walk of life, needs to be reminded to find the good in herself.
