The theme of my book, The Blind Side, is success in football doesnt just mean you have to be big. it means that you also need a good education and resources so you can play at that level. I think this is the theme of this book because it is about a man who is very uneducated and wants to play football. He is picked up by a very generous family and goes to a hard privet school that he struggles very hard at. He goes on the football team and is not getting good grades and has to get a tuture so he can still play footbsll this level.
In part of the text, Micheal Oher is starting to fail a class. he seeks to get help and started to get a little better in the class. Meanwhile the class time he is getting to choose what collage to go to for football. That is the reason he is trying so hard in school. he is very dedicated to play football even though he wasnt the one who made him start playing. one of the coaches at the school saw him and at first sight he thought that he could be a superstar in the sport.
"The boy had a Measured IQ of 80. which put him in the 9th persential" This quote supports the theme of this book because it talks about how micheal has a very poor education. It says that the coach really beleaves in tht micheal could be a good football player. "...who had been one acidemic probation, had no bisness." this qoute explains that you cannot play a sport with bad grades. "the problem there, at first, resembled the problems in the class room. This qoute has to do with the theme because it is about how micheal had bad grades in the class room. it says that the problems on the field showed that he was struggling in the class.
