Write a personal narrative about an experience of your own that relates to one or more aspect(s) of either A Visit from the Goon Squad or one (or more) of the stories from the Vintage anthology.

Write a personal narrative about an experience of your own that relates to one or more aspect(s) of either A Visit from the Goon Squad or one (or more) of the stories from the Vintage anthology. Focus on showing vs. telling the important details of your story. Use sensory details, physical description, and dialogue. DO NOT discuss the books in your narrative, just tell your personal story so that readers are completely immersed in the experience you’re dramatizing. Then, on a separate page, write a paragraph that explains the connections you see between your own story and A Visit from the Goon Squad or one (or more) of the stories from the Vintage anthology. Make certain that you provide quotations from the summer reading book(s) that influenced your choices in the personal narrative you’ve written.
