Cirque Du Freak is a fictional book that teaches people to not do things without our parents consent, or illegal things in general. I know that it's fictional, but it can also be related to real life. The main character Darren Shan, is a teenager who sneaks out at night with his best friend to go see a freak show, which is illegal. When they go there, they see a lot of strange things. And they become curious, which leads to dangerous things. It gets so bad that Darren regrets going to the freak show.
One point in the book is when he steals a dangerous spider from its owner, Mr. Crepsley. He plays with it and uses tricks on it, which he saw Mr. Crepsley do at the freak show. The spider seems harmless, but Darren's little sister gets bitten. The spider's poisonous venom paralyzes her. Once again, Darren regrets going to the freak show.
His life becomes so upside down that Darren puts everyone's lives in danger. And he wishes that he had not gone to the freak show. If his parents had known, then they'd have protected him from going. But at the end Darren suffers along with everyone else.
I like how you included a brief summary, since it portrayed a thought in my mind of what this book is about. I also liked how started off with a strong lead sentence, in your first paragraph since it states what you are trying to prove. Overall I liked how the topic you chose to prove, had a strong evidence to back it up with.
