Forrest Gump;

Forrest Gump, named after General Nathan Bedford Forrest, narrates the story of his life. The author uses misspellings and grammatical errors to indicate his Southern accent, education, and cognitive disabilities. While living in Mobile, Alabama, Forrest meets Jenny Curran in first grade and walks her home.

By the time Forrest is sixteen years old, he is 6’ 6” (1.98 m), 242 pounds (110 kg), and plays high school football. Miss Henderson, whom Forrest is infatuated with, gives him reading lessons. He reads Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and two other books that he doesn’t remember. While he enjoys the books, he doesn’t do well on tests.

He gains popularity as a football player, joining the All State team. When Forrest is called to the principal’s office, he meets Bear Bryant, who asks if he’d considered playing college football. After high school, Forrest takes a test at a local army recruitment center, and is told he is “Temporarily Deferred.”
