Grab Instantly We Beat The Street: How A Friendship Pact Led To Success Depicted By Sampson Davis Published As Interactive EBook

bothered me a bit that these guys kept squeaking by each time they got in trouble, Some of the things they did were serious like beating a homeless man almost to death, but each time they were able to find a way out of trouble.
I'm not saying I begrudge their success, and they do try to show remorse for each of the things they did, but what message does it ultimately send to the children Do what you want and as long as you're sorry, everything will be okay and you can become doctors.
I know the hard work they put into their schooling, and that is precisely what the students as we read this schoolwide needed to know.
However, they never really mentioned how much actual work is really involved in earning a medical degree, I suppose it wouldn't have held the interest of its intended audience if all they talked about was how much studying they did or how difficult the coursework was, but that may be precisely the problem.
The kids didn't see the reality, but the reality show version of their story, There's no way you can become a doctor just by choosing the right friends and hoping to get out of every scrape with the law.
It's not a bad book, and it has a good message, but I don't think MY students benefited much from it, We Beat the Street

Growing up on the rough streets of Newark, New Jersey, Rameck, George,and Sampson could easily have followed their childhood friends into drug dealing, gangs, and prison.
But when a presentation at their school made the three boys aware of the opportunities available to them in the medical and dental feilds, they made a pact amongst themselves that they would go to collage and become doctors.
It took a lot of determination and a lot of support from one another, but despite all the hardships they faced along the way, the three friends succeeded.


I think for three black kids growing up in the ghetto, would be hard in general, but for them to grow up and all become successful doctors is amazing.
This book inspired me becauseI want to be a doctor when I grow up, and if three black kids from the hood could graduate top of their highschool class, and go to med school, then so can I! If I had to rate this book on a scale from one to ten, one being terribal nd ten being awsome, I would give it a ten because of how inspiring I thought this book was.
We beat the streets was a good and inspiring book to read, This was the first full book I have finished in a long time, The authors made it so I wanted to keep reading by making it interesting with clues and leads to what is going to happen next.
The story was plotted in Newark, New Jersey in the projects, There were three kids named Sampson, George, and Remeck, They all face hard times in the streets with drugs and street violence everywhere, The three kids were all very smart and at the top of their classes,
My favorite parts of this book is When the three of the kids make a pact to each other that they all will be staid in school so they can all make it out of the projects to college.
The best part is that no one believed in them and all of them got excepted to Seton Hall University and they all went through a lot of hard work and graduated.
Another good part of this book is when Sampson is trying to make some extra money and him and his friend go to sell crack and he backs out and he says, “ thats not me, I cant do this”.
This is a great part because Sampson shows good judgment and averts doing something illegal,
The part I didnt like was in the end of the book it says that Sampson gets a job as doctor at the Newark Hospital but doesnt tell where the others get jobs.
They graduated together from different medicals school, Another thing I didnt like was when Sampson went to jail for stealing the carpet cleaning machine it didnt explain what happened to him in jail in detail or what he went through.

I would give this book abecause it kept me interested and I loved the book, It taught me a few things like how to work hard in life to succeed and that it doesnt come easy,

Growing up on the rough streets of Newark, New Jersey, Rameck, George, and Sampson could easily have followed their childhood friends into drug dealing, gangs, and prison.

  It took a lot of determinationand a lot of support from one anotherbut despite all the hardships along the way, the three succeeded,  Retold with the help of an awardwinning author, this younger adaptation of the adult hit novel The Pact is a hardhitting, powerful, and inspirational book that will speak to young readers everywhere.
This book is about three black men trying to make it through like all black men but these men makes something out of there life and become a doctor.
It was good I like how it rotated story's from each of their child hood and how the story's told what kind of place they lived in.
Also how they worked their way up to being a doctor and all the struggles they went through, I think this book is true in many ways, even though I can't relate to everything that they talk about in the book on a more surface level this book is about working hard with what you've got and not giving up.
You don't need to have all those hardships to try and hang with good people or work hard in school or other things that are important to you.
Uplifting, true to life, motivating and I hope inspiring to the young people who read it that think they have no hope of being successful.
What it's about: The true story of three young boys from the bad part of Newark, NJ, who grew up to defy the odds and become doctors.


Middle grades and YA author Sharon M, Draper helped doctors Sampson Davis, George Jenkins, and Rameck Hunt tell the stories of their lives growing up under some pretty severe conditions in the lates and earlys in the inner city of Newark.
Gangs and drugs and violence were the usual way of life, and most people they knew were unlikely to graduate from high school, nevermind college.
Their prospects seemed bleak.

But all three boys each displayed some particular aptitudes for learning, and each had a supporting family that helped them push themselves to achieve.
After getting into an academically challenging high school, the boys became friends, They also managed to accidentally find out about a program to support minority students in becoming medical professionals,

Their path was far from easy, but the three made a pact to support each other and drive each other to success, Although they had no role models for furthering their education, or for what it might mean to be doctors, they persevered and became practicing doctors and professors, as well as creating a variety of ways to give back to and encourage kids like they had been.


What I thought: I found this to be an engaging and inspiring story, It definitely read in places like the idealized version, the conquering heroes regaling their enraptured audience with their tales of derringdo,

But it was also an important reminder that so many kids do not see a path for themselves outside of the very proscribed ones they see in their immediate surroundings.
Even moreso, it is a clarion call reminder that representation matters,

Why I rated it like I did: This is an inspiring story that lots of kids can learn from, It encourages teens to consider the consequences of their actions, to do their best to rise above their circumstances, and to find those with similar dreams and support each other as they go after their futures.

This book was aboutblack men overcoming Poverty, Racism, Gang violence, and too many drugs for the mind to comprehend even though they made mistakes along the way they decided that no matter what happened they would still try their best to get through their lives one step at a time.
