3. Text to Text Connection
This week, the book that I'm writing about is Shattered by Eric Walters. "As I got closer I saw a sign on the building-The Club. The lettering was in bight orange paint, crudely done and peeling away." (Eric Walters, Shattered 18).
My connection to this quote is a text to text relation. The second text that I am relating to is Sketches by Eric Walters. The two books are both about street people and help centres for them in some way. The quote in Shattered describes the soup kitchen for homeless people, which is like the art studio that street kids can go to in Sketches. Both books have characters that play important rolls at these help centres and they both take pride in running their buildings. That is why I can relate the quote from Shattered to Sketches.

Good connection about two books by the same author. Great description on the books, and the quote was nicely done. Good job!
