  2. After watching this video i am curious as to why the author is so dedicated to understanding the other Wes Moore's story. Yes, sure they have the same name and grew up in the same place, but is this the authors only motive to comparing their lives? I guess what really stood out to me in this narrative is how the author is actually taking the time, and is so passionate about telling his story to make a difference in others.

    1. I think his desire and passion to make a difference in others lives is a good thing. I just think it is easier for him to continue to benefit when everything is identical. Not everyone has an identical twin to compare our choices to.

  3. What stood out to me,from watching this video of the book we are going to be reading is that,Why was he so invested to a random person who had the same exact name? I'm very curious is to why be intrigued by the same name?

    1. I think it is his motivation to continue to make the right choices in life.

  4. This video, in a way is as unique and transpiring as the emotion of the author that made the book. Seeing a similar, yet different person in his life with the same name opened his eyes to the term of "life choices". Figuring out the motive of the book and the character figures will be different than most, that is what makes me interested.

  5. In the video he explains that life is about the choices you make and those choices decide your future. He tells us that their was another person that had the same name, same age, and lived around the same neighborhood but that person made the wrong choices which led him into trouble. He says that could've been him if he hadn't made the right choices.

  6. I am curious to know if he would continue to make the right choices if he didn't have a twin being a constant reminder of the consequences of choice. As we all know it is not always easy to make the right choice, but he has a mirrored reflection of the what could of been.

  8. Their stories started out the same, but ended different. they have the same name, same childhood, but not the same adulthood. one was given a chance to success, the other was never given the choice. they share the name wes moore, one is a writer and one is serving a sentence of life or death. both could have had the same life as the other, but both just look in the mirror and see the other person saying "That could have been my life".

  9. After watching this video im curious about why he was so intrested in the other wes more's life. They both had the same childhood growing up in the same neighborhood. One of them changed his life around and became a writter while the other kept making bad choices and ended up in prison.

  10. This is a really intresting and I like it because is a true story. This both men's have similar situation about there life. The difference about them is that one went to prison and this could of been the life of the other. It should be great to know someone in our life with our same name and same age. I know it will be a good book to read.

  12. What stood out to me in Moore's narrative was that the Moore's where form the same place and they had two different outcomes in there life's. I want to know what he finds out in his book because I would like to see what was the big X factor in why he didn't wind up in jail like the Moore's did.

  13. Love it! This really piqued my curiosity because I wanna know the whole story and what difference they had to have two different lives. I like how he wanted to get to know the other guy just because they had the same name,I may have done the same.

  15. Not the kind of material I would usually read, but after watching the video and reading the first two chapters I find I am quite curious to hear the stories of the two Wes Moores. A few small changes in ones environment can set us on radically different courses in our lives.

  19. After watching the video I looked for his name in the Rhodes scholar list and no spelling of his name could be found from 1903 to 2013. He ran away five times,That is considered desertion and is not forgiven ever.Five times, not a chance A Rhodes Scholarship requires a perfect academic record.Running away and not in school negates this. His writing stumbles and is inconsistent.I have asked others whom I respect to read parts of it and I am consistently told my opinion is justified.I have never made a movie but, I know a bad one when I see it. j wiseman english 304

  21. After watching the video I am very curious about what the other Wes Moore went thru. This book seems like it is going to be very interesting especially because, in the video the author mentions that the other Wes Moore could have been him.

  22. The thing that stood the most was that what are the odds that there's another kid in the neighborhood with the same name and background and their journeys to becoming who they are now.

  23. The main thing that really stood out to me was that there was another guy with his name and grow up so close to by eachother and had so many things alike but yet they were so different. And then at the end they both start to get to know each and now have a kinda bond.

  24. What caught my attention after watching this video was that these two young men not only had the same exact name but also very similar backgrounds, but yet their lives ended up very differently. I'm curious to find out what different choices did they make and why. What did one Wes Moore have that the other one didn't? Can't wait to start reading the book and figuring it out!

  27. Very interesting story. What a coincidence that they both grew up a couple a streets away of each other, we're about the same age, don't have many maemories with their father and are named the same.. Can't wait to finish reading the whole book and see what it ends like and why was the other Wes Moore so interested on the other one. -Abigail Granados

  28. What caught my attention in this video is that the 2 guys are so much alike. They both grew up really close to each other yet they both had different thoughts of life. Both grew up with out their dads and it was really hard for them. One of them makes better choices than the other, both learn about the right choices of life.

  29. this story caught my attention because there two people who have the very same first and last name but there childhood was different.They even lived in the same neighborhood but didn't know each other. this story kind of amazes me because one made a right choice and the other made a bad choice.

  30. I'm curious as to how much someone's life decisions can affect the life of that person's children. The closest you can be to a complete stranger and yet their lifestyles are so far apart, due to their mother's decisions on how to discipline. What stood out to me, was the fact that Wes Moore reached out to the other Wes Moore. Just them having the similar characteristics that they have, is unreal. But I wouldn't have ever expected them to be introduced to each other, and that leaves me eager to read this book.

  31. What stood out the most to me about this story was that Wes Moore who wrote the story about the two wanted to find out what him and the other Wes Moore had in common about their lives and what happend to make them have two different fates.

  32. After watching this video, I'm curios to know why he really cares to write a story between him and the other Wes Moore. Is he really trying to tell the people that the other Wes Moore is the bad and the good one is him? What stood me to have interest to read this book is to find out, what will happen in the end of his narrative story.As he mention that they do have lots of in common but why is it the other Wes Moore endeed as one of the problem in our society. A lot of question about the book that very interesting to know why he is giving so much passion to write about his life and this other Wes Moore.

  33. In addition to my comment,I think the author is trying to let people know about our choices in life. The sad thing about the author's life is that,he knew this other man which has an exact name of him and went into a different direction and that's why he is trying to narrate this story to let people know between the differences and their choices.

  34. The thing that stood out to me was that in his childhood he was getting in trouble in his neighborhood and in school but his mother corrected him so from there he changed and took the right choices in his life and how other person with the same name had the same opportunity to choice but the other Wes Moore choose the wrong choice.

  35. After watching the video, what stood out to me in Moore's narrative is how two individuals of almost the same age, having similar names, living in same society, having some common opportunities, losing their fathers in early ages will become two totally different persons in the future because of their choices, beliefs, and companies.This is what makes me really interested in reading "The Other Wes Moore" in order to find out what really happened to them in details.

  36. After watching this video and reading the introduction it made me interested in reading The Other Wes Moore, he took his time to know about the other guy even thought, he didn't have to. He wanted to know why did the other guy took the path he took, because that could of been him.

  37. This seems like its a good story but it also seems thats it just like any other. I mean everyone goes through thing it just a matter of how you deal with it. I guess the other wes moore dealt with things different. I'm actually curious to see what made the other wes more lead to his decision in killing the cop but I'm also curious to see what change wes more. Yes I'm sure they both had a hard life but there must of been that one impact on their lives that made them both have different lives because although they had bad childhood that doesn't really justify what they have done in there lives. what really got to me was if there a person out there name the same as me going thur the same thing

  38. After watching the video, I would say that the curiosity that stood out to me was how there was another man with almost the same age, who lived in the same neighborhood, and had a single mother like him but also the same name. My first curiosity was how he reached out to the other Wes Moore. I was curious because not about the fact that he reached out to a man he did not know, but he reached out to a man that was in prison for robbery. That kind of scared me because the majority of the people that go to jail, is because their bad persons. But what makes me want to read The Other Wes Moore is because of the coincidence of name, age, single moms, and living in the same neighborhood.

  42. It gets you thinking how something can change your life. I think its weird how there can be another person with the same name and with same raised by one mother. This is a good book that helps you make the right decisions and just leaves you thinking.

  48. My curiosity was piqued when Wes Moore talked said his father died of a rare illness. I want to know what caused him to run away five time and also what caused him to come back turn his life around and decide to get a degree. The other Wes Moore was put being sentenced to prison around the same time Wes Moore was getting his degree. One is such a horrible ending and the other a new great beginning.

And how what makes how they both have the same name , lived around the same area , almost the same age and both lived with single mom's.Which brings out the most curiosity as to why?

  50. the life that these two men live are very different outcome but all the possibilites of the things happening to each other are very much the same. I think both of them not having a man figure around had a impact on both of the way they were taught and live.Having only there mothers to take a fathers a mans place show them right from wrong gave different thinking ways but i do wonder if they may be some way related from both having the same name to living in the same neighborhood?

  51. The thing that interested me the most about the book is that the two men had the same name. One guy was able to live a life of succession while the other was mistreated. It was interesting that Wes Moore cared about the other guy that had the same name as him. He wanted to know every detail about some guy that he did not know. I would like to know why he cared so much about getting to know a guy that had the same name as him.

  56. What makes me wonder is how he actually thinks fate played in a part of these two peoples lives. How just because they have the same name makes him wonder why they shouldn't be in different places. It does interest me the fact that their lives were so much a like growing up. Also, how the same events could make two totally different stories.

  57. I like it. It's really interesting because is a true story. This video caught my attention, how this guy who was succesful took so much interest in the other Wes Moore, although have to say that if I find out other girl with the same name as mine I would take an interest too. Two guys that grew up, a couple streets away from each other, same name, almost same age but different stories. I'm curious about how was every time they met in prision, their reaction and everything. I can't wait to finish reading the whole book and see how it ends.

  73. What stood out to me, after watching this video and that makes me interested reading the book The Other Wes Moore was the differences of two people with the same name. It is basically, telling us that we make our own choices wether we go to the wrong way or in the right way it is always up to us, how we can make our life better. Curiosity gave him the way to investigate about the other Wes Moore to made him think and asked himself. What will happen to me if I didn't finish school? Am I gonna be like him? end up in jail?

  74. I'm beyond speechless, one name two faces. It amazes me how fate works. It makes me wonder if there is another person with the same name as me. It also makes me wonder, would the other Wes Moore have gotten into the predicament if they had encountered each other at a young age? Maybe if they became friends they might have influenced each other into different paths in life.

  75. After watching the video of the Other Wes Moore, I was surprised to find out that they both shared the same name, and both having personal similarities. But what was really interesting is that they both could have been sharing a prison cell, but instead one is free and the other is in prison. I'm curious about what makes a person change his/her ways from a negative to a positive life.

  76. I am curious to find out who did what slightly differently that caused such a big difference in the outcome. Maybe it was because one was sent to a military school. But then again he ran away 5 times, so what finally got him to consider it? What was this disease that killed his dad and why? what happened to the other boys' father? I can't wait to read this book.

    I like the comparisons between the 2 wes mores and I am really interested in the book, so far I like it.

  84. I was curious on how both of their lives were the same, but when they grew up, their lives are totally different from each other. I'm also curious on how they got the same name. It is a good thing that the other Wes Moore in prison agrees to tell Wes Moore his life story. I would like to know how they both led their lives into a dark path. It is a good thing one of them became successful for one them to write a story.

  85. I guess what really stood out to me was that they both have the same name and how their lives ended up. One ended up being very successful and the other is serving life in a penitentiary. Crazy stuff.

    To me what stood out was how this could put end to the nature vs. nurture argument. Both of them were given the same background, same problems hect even the same name. Yet they ended up in two different places. Proving it doesn't matter where you come from all that matters is what choices you make in life.

  87. I think this is a small world, the two kids with the same last name and journey. They both have challenges, have allot of similar decisiones and moments. This is a interesting book.

  90. One thing that has really stuck out to me is them both having a single mom. I believe it stars at home and being a single mom is a struggle. They may have been raised completely different and I'm very curious to see if any of their upbringing is different in future chapters. I'm hoping more is written about this aspect.

  91. What stood out to me is how he brings us into his life and he explains the differences and similarities that they have. I was very shocked to see how they could have so many similarities and end up with two different lives.

  93. I think what stood out to me is he is very interested in what went wrong in the other Wes Moore's life to have ended up the way he did. They have so much in common, a lot of similarties and for him to end up in a completely different life intrigues him.

  94. What drives me to read the book is that two men named Wes Moore who grew up with similarities in their lives ended up with different endings, one who became a veteran solder that got his life straight, while the other became a criminal who's life was sentence to prison for the rest of his life.
    In the book the 'other wes moore' will explain what they did and how they became what they are today, i cant wait to read it to find out how it happened!

  99. I think its awsome that he has taken the time to put this kind of infomation out there, for people to see just how powerful the choices we make will be the outcome of are life. It shows you that just because we make bad choices doesnt mean there all bad people. I think its awsome he has taken this much time out of his life to get the knownledge out there for the young people into days world.

  100. This story shows choices you can make to change your life in a good way or bad way. This story the two characters have the same names and same childhood but as they grow up one choices the right decisions to make.

  101. Curiously i want to know how did Wes Moore end up doing what he did to end up in jail ? did he have the parents around to guide him down the right path ? or was he always alone and hanging with the wrong crowd.i was just curious because the original wes moore started out doing the same thing, but his mother quickly turned him around. if the other wes moore had the chance to do the same thing, i think they would be very similar.

  102. What stood out to me is the fact that they both ironically had same name, and grew up in the same place. But such different paths that they took. I find it crazy but heartbreaking to know that one could have been just as successful as the other.

  103. What stood out to me about this, is that the fact they grew up in the same place, with the same names, both didn't have thier fathers as they grew up, but took such different paths.

  104. My curiosity was wondering why he wanted to meet the other Wes Moore and ask him about his life and decisions he chose. Why did he want to find out and compare their lives toward each other and see the difference between the two. That made me really curious
