정하영-Mitrch Albom

Mitch Albom is a writer. At first he was a sport columnist. Each year his sports columns were entered in the 'associated press' Sports Editors contest and between 1991 and 2000 he won first prize in feature story writing seven times.
He wrote many books, and three of them are very popular. The first is ‘Tuesdays with Morrie’, the second is ‘the five people you meet in heaven’ and the third book is ‘For one more day’. I read all of these, but the most touching story was ‘For one more day’. This book is about a son who gets to spend just one day with his mother who died eight years earlier.
The day when I read that was my last week in Busan because I had to come to Seoul. For that reason, I was very depressed that day, and just worried about my new school life. But after I read the story I realized that there are so many people who I have to say thank you. I had just one week to spend with my family and friends. So I renewed my mind and tried to meet more people and to spend good time with them instead of being lonely. Thanks to that book, the last week in Busan I was very happy. This is the reason why I pick this book and the writer, Mitch Albom.
