When John Paul was little he got good grades. He was the best in the class. He was responsible to his parents. He never said anything bad to people and to his parents. The reason I picked John Paul was because he was the best pope in the world. John Paul had to study. He had to study a lot for the priesthood. In school, he wrote books, and he was also learning how to be a priest. He was the first Polish pope. His full name is Karol Jan Wojtylaw. He had to learn a lot of languages, so when he went to different countries he could talk their language.

John Paul got wounded one day. One guy was shooting at him at him because they didn't like him. Everyone was sad because they thought he was going to die. When John Paul recovered he went to the guy and forgave him.

John Paul was real, not phony. He was real because he would never say anything bad about someone. He had good grades in school. At home, he would help his parents with everything. He never said anything bad about his parents. John Paul liked going on trips to Poland. He mostly likes the forest in Poland. It was because it was peaceful and quiet. John Paul inspires me. He inspires me because he is the first Polish pope in the world. He never yelled or raised his voice at anybody.

John Paul is remembered for his love for children, world wide travels, and a vision of a peaceful world. He hoped that people would stop fighting. Karol was very peaceful. He was peaceful because he never fought, said anything bad, or yelled at someone.

Karol liked being a priest because could help other people. He helped people by taking their sins and helping with problems. Karol would never say anything to upset someone.

When Karol was all grown up he had to learn everything about being a priest. He had to learn saying the prayer right in different languages so he wouldn't say anything wrong and start all over. Another reason is that so he can put on the right robe and hold up the church.

He had gotten shot two times. When he got shot, everyone was sad. In 2005 John Paul the second died. He has died because had a sickness. He died in the evening. Everyone was crying. John Paul died when he was 84 years old. He�s the only pope in the world that lived longer.
