The Blob that Ate Everyone

I am reading a book named “The Blob that Ate Everyone.” In the story, Zackie Beauchamp is the name of the main character. It is his last name and no one ever knows how to pronounce his name.

When I read this sentence it reminds me that in the school many teachers cannot pronounce my Chinese name. My name is Ming-Yuan but many teachers have problem with the Yuan sound. It sometimes makes me feel bad because it sounds silly to me. After a few days I decided to make a nickname, which is the reason I have a nickname name Tom.

When I read the story I think about what is happening in the story. I can image and feel that how did he felt when other people could not pronounce his name.
