I was only 3
September 2, 2011 - Saint Joseph, Missouri
Hello, my name is Elliott, I was only 3, almost 4 in April, when September 11, 2001 happened. I had always wanted to go to New York to see ground zero, I understand that 9/11 was a very, very tragic day and over 2,000 people were lost that day, but it would be nice to have a picture video of what had happened.
I have also boughten flip books from you and made my own with sticky notes, (yours were great but mine, they just turned out okay) but since the 9/11 10th anniversary is coming up and I would very much like to have a flip book of what had happened that day. I actually have a barcode flip book that I bought from you and it turned out to be the best flip book I had ever seen, the detail and how you see Jesus's face in the barcodes.
Any way the 10th anniversary flip book that you have made is a beautiful peace and is very unique in many ways, it is just like a video on paper.
I think that this 500 word essay is very much worth the time I put into it. It is actually kind of funny how I found out about your 9/11 flip book. I had some sticky notes and I drew a picture of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and I thought to myself if there is such thing as a 9/11 flip book, so I went on my computer and I searched up 9/11 flip book, I was expecting an article or a handmade drawing of the towers being hit on YouTube.com and I saw a link to your site, I saw the video on YouTube and then went to your website, I thought it was cool that you put the actual video on a flip book.
Out of all the options I chose the essay ( as you can see and the 500 word essay is well worth the time) because I think I'm a fairly good writer.
9/11 has and will always have an impact on our life's until we die.
That is why I think the 9/11 flip book will be a good piece to have.
And now that they are building the Freedom Tower ( One Big World Trade Center ). Along with path hall which is suppost to Open 9/11/11. The flip book will be a nice piece to have and to remember what had gone on that horrible day in America. To sum up why I would like to have this flip book is because Of the 10th anniversary coming up and all of the things that they will have to sell to remember that horrible day, and I think that this is a great 9/11 remembrance to have and to keep to remember that day. I love that 9/11 is remembered and there is not even words that can describe how bad I feel for the families that lost there loved ones.
