Questions about Michaela Deprince book

Here are some questions about my opinion of the book. This book is about how Michela was in an orphanage to then become a famous ballerina. SPOILER ALERT: Her dad died in a mining accident and her mum died because she got a disease. I recommend this book.  

Why did you choose this book? I picked this book because it is my passion to do ballet and it opened my eyes to how hard people childhoods had been.

If you were the character what would you have different in the story? I would have tried not to step in the toilet.

Where is the book set? It is set in Sierra Leone.

If the book was a tv show what actors would you cast in it? I would cast Laura Linney, Donna Murphy and Paul Giamatti as orphanage nannies, Dwayne Johnson as adoptive dad and Scarlett Johnson as adoptive mum.

Would we be friends? I don't think we would be friends because she is much older than me but I would invite her over to teach me some new ballet steps.

What does the place look like in your head, would you visit there? It looks in head that it would bright and sunny place, I have a strong feeling that everything would be destroyed. I wouldn't visit because I wouldn't feel safe.

Why do you think the author wrote this book? I think she wanted people to know that times can be tough but something will bright we concur that tough time.

What new facts did you learn? I learnt that she had a big struggle start off with an extremely tough life but pushed trough and become a very successful ballerina.

I hope you enjoyed reading my questions and learning new things.
