At first we went over there to help there country and we were supposed to be back as soon as possible. But the president continues to keep the soldiers over there after tellins us they would be back soon. This is an example of "letting people down" that relates to the book I read. Dramatization: This book tells us about a high school boy named Mick with very little people in his life he can trust. Usually everybody lets him down consitently. First his dad cheats on his mom andnwhen Mick catches him his dad makes him swear he wont tell his mom. Then one night when he was drunk, Mick cheated on his pride and joy: His girlfriend. Then when Mick and his only two friends(who also have problems) commit a terrible crime while drunk, Mick has to make a very hard choice. Does he tell the truth and save himself, or does he remain loyal to the only people who he feels trust him: His friends? My Bio: I am 15 years old.
