Bill Gates

My name is Brett Patenaude, i gave the book a 4 star review beacue it gave me alot of facts.Like how bill has always rocks in his chair since he was little, and that by the time he was 13 he was better at cracking computer bug than many trained softwear programers.The main character is Bill.Bill grew up in a small town of boston.Bill faced trubble in his early life with getting along with his class mates.But he had no problem copeing with this problem when he went 2 an all private boys school.
