b Last month I read Yes Man by Danny
Wallace. Danny is the main character of
this book. At the start of the book his life is
quite boring. He hardly ever sees his friends
because he prefers to stay at home. One day
a strange man tells Danny to say yes more.
So for one year, Danny says yes to every
question and invitation he has some very
interesting experiences! This book is funny
and interesting. It changed the way I think
about my life. Im going to buy it for all my
friends and Im going to say yes more! I
think youll love this book!
