Lizard Brain Book Report

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to have lizard brain? In my book, Audrey has a ‘lizard brain’. That means she runs away when she sees a new person and lets her ‘lizard brain’ take over her real brain. Then she meets Linus and he helps her get rid of her anxiety. Audrey’s mom doesn’t like video games, Audrey is getting better, and she might go back to school.
Audrey’s mom is like my mom. They both are averse to video games. My mom doesn’t like it when I am on my phone for a long time. Audrey’s mom doesn’t like it when Frank is playing video games all day. “How many hours have you played on your computer games this week?”(Kinsella 9) Audrey’s mom is worried about Frank because she read in the Daily Mail that video games are bad. She believes that everything in the Daily Mail is true. She asks Frank to add up all of the hours he has spent on his computer this week. He doesn’t want to because he knows she will get mad. When he tells her, she is so mad she could throw his computer out the window.☺(hyperbole) When my mom asks me to check how many hours I have been on my phone, I get scared too. Audrey is getting better.

She starts to think that she will get better when she goes outside for the first time in months. “This is me. No more down. Only up.”(Kinsella 196) Audrey is starting to get excited about becoming normal again. Linus is going to help her so she can do that. He is very good at extolling. She feels that she can be normal when he is cheering her on. They start by going to Starbucks. This is a challenge for Audrey because she hasn’t left her house in months. She is as scared as if she had a nightmare.☺(simile) At the end of the book, Audrey still isn’t one hundred percent cured, but I think she is going to be normal
