A Million Little Pieces
by James Frey
In my book a million little pieces James has been put in treatment facility to stop being addicted to drugs. James is having a hard time finding himself, because he doesn't understand anything. Why his parents still love him even after everything he did to himself and why he doesn't love them the same way. As I progressed in the memoir he's starting to miss a friend who has died a decade ago and he's blaming himself for her death.

How does the information in the box "a day in the life (of me)" help the reader understand the article?

The information from the box helps the reader understand the article by showing the reader what her day is like and compare their life to her life, and see how much harder/easier her life is compared to our life. For example, she sews patches on clothes. We buy clothes that have patches already sewed on.
