Lesson Learned The book I'm currently reading, and almost done with is "Lesson Learned" by Earl Sewell. This book is about a girl named Keysha who has been through a lot and her brother Mike as well. Keysha's mom just got out of jail and she's trying to get back into her life. This book is told from first-person point of view. Both Mike and Keysha use the words "I" to show their own personal feelings, as well as experiences. Keysha didn't want to get involved with her mother because she thought she would make the same mistakes as to when she was younger. Keysha's mom didn't care about Keysha or her dad feeling's so she decided to put the decision into court's hands. If this story was told from another point of view, we may not have known all of the feelings and expressions the characters present. I believe that if it were told from third-person point of view the readers wouldn't fully understand the mood the events show
