Malcolm X Evaluation Paragraph

In Malcom X's autobiography, "Learning to Read," Malcolm's ability to teach himself how to read was inspiring. He learned how to read and write by copying words from the dictionary and read the words out loud over and over. Once he knew how to read, he would read books from the prison library. He read so many books that he learned a lot of information that he never knew. He was fascinated by all the books that he would spend most of his day reading even when its "lights out" at the prison. He would adjust to the little amount of light to read. And that inspired me that he started off by not knowing how to read and he taught himself to read.
