Destiny’s biography

Destiny comes home from school and shows me her biography…she could pick anyone that she wanted to and do a biography on them..they had to research the person and write what they learned..Well my heart just melted when Destiny showed me her’s. It was great and I want to share it all with you:)   She picked Chris Burke!! (here’s a pic in case anyone don't know who he is)

Chris Burke was born August 1965. His mother was Marian Burke and his fathers name is Frank Burke. Chris Burke went to a special school and made many friends. Chris Burke was important because he had Down Syndrome. Some of his accomplishments were that he became a boy scout. He went to a school in Massachusetts.  The school had a farm. He is an actor. Even though he had Down Syndrome he did a lot in his life.  by: Destiny West
