That made her start to look at her life more closely, so then she was able to understand what was happening in her life better. I thought that part of the book was really important because Annie started to look at the apple more deeply.

I thought one really important part of the book was when Miss Freely, the art teacher, assigned the project to draw the same apple over and over again for one hundred days. At the end of the book Annie realizes how much she cares about Max, grandpa, and Joey. Annie realizes what a miracle a baby can be. The problem finally gets solved when the baby begins to breath and cry.

He is important because when Annie has to say something and she didn't want to tell anyone else, she had her grandpa to tell because she knew that he wouldn't tell anyone. Third, is how she deals with her grandpa. Next, Annie is trying to deal with her mother being pregnant. He becomes her running partner even though she doesn’t like to run with him. When the character tries to solve the problem, here is what happens. The problem in this story is how Annie is trying to figure out where she fits in. Some of the other characters are Max, who also runs, Annie’s grandpa, and Miss Freely, the art teacher. The main character, Annie loves to run every day to the same place and she also loves to draw once in a while. The book Heartbeat, by Sharon Creech, takes place in a time of Annie's life while she is experiencing all different things in her life.
