I thought that maybe "ROOM" would be a good book to read together as a class. I haven't read it but my best friend in China just read it and she told me that it was a very good book (we are both interested in the same books). I did some research on "ROOM" and I now have a small general idea about what "ROOM" is about.
The entire book is narrated by five-year-old Jack. To Jack, Room is his entire world. He has never known any other world other than Room. Born and raised in Room and he lives in Room with Ma. They eat, sleep, read and play all day long but at night, Ma locks Jack up in the closet where he sleeps while Old Nick visits. Room is home to Jack but to Ma, Room is where Old Nick has been holding her captive for the past 7 years. Ma created Jack's world for him but Ma knows that Room isn't enough for Jack to grow up and for Ma to live. So she composed a escape plan but the entire plan relies on luck and, on Jack.
