I think that in the Tom Robinson case that the judges are later going to decide that Tom Robinson is not guilty of harassing Mayella Ewell. My best guess is that Mayella did hug and kiss Tom as he said but instead of telling her father, she hurt herself (the marks on her face) to make it seem like Tom was the one who hurt her so then the father wouldn’t be suspicious of her doing anything to Tom.

Scout was at school and found a pack of gum in a tree and decided to grab it and eat it, he later finds out he wasn’t supposed to and he and Jem finishes out the school year.

In the book to kill a mockingbird the setting is a place called Maycomb County. Maycomb was an old town. It was dark and wasn’t alive. When it rained the streets turned to red slop and grass started to grow on the sidewalks. This county might influence the characters by the moral the people have. It might influence the plot by how there will be different action instead of peaceful living.

Ta-Nehisi Coates is the main character talking about his past experiences in a different perspective. I would describe him as tough and ready for life’s challenges. They would probably describe themselves as standing out from a group. The color of their skin would mostly affect their identity living at the time with racism towards African American people.

I chose this book to read because when I read the back of the book it seemed interesting. Even though I’ve only read 12 pages I think this book will be very interesting and action filled. This book has lived up to my escpectations so far but I have only read 12 pages.

I would like to ask Brandon one of the main characters if he could go back in time and stop him from playing the game would he? The next question I would ask him is that if he thinks that the game was a good idea that was brought in this utopia. The last question I would ask him is does he think the death of Danielle will affect everyone in the books future with the game?

One significant moment that I think was a crucial moment in the book is when Danielle died. Danielle was kinda of an important when she was alive. But after her death her life was much more crucial. Her death triggered the game to shut down. As a result her death was much more than just a person dying. I predict that in future they will one hundred percent fix that problem.

For the tone I would say it is impartial because the author makes it seems as though from the beginning that this kid just comes out of the game as he has been in there for a number of years and they don't say anything much about him. He had started a new life after he came out of the game and came to the real world.

The topic I'm doing is audience. The audience that this book is producing I think is young kids. This book is kid friendly it has no bad scenes, no inappropriate language. I like this book and it is good for me because it isn't scary or graphic.

If I could say something to the main character I would give the advice that he should not be too caught up with the game and live more in the real world because the game is not a real life thing. The game is not everything in this book but it is a big part of it. The advice I would give is don't get your brain messed up with the game and the real life.

In the fictional story that I am reading my book is in chronological order by how the sequence of events that are happened are happened throughout time. Even though they go back and forth in "the game" it still is in chronological order. The book mostly only talks about the game and so they don't go back in time to see things about the game previously.

The point of view in my book I would say is 3rd person limited because in the book the at only some points in the book there is 1st person when someone is speaking and there is more of 3rd person. The narrator usually says stuff such as "he" or "they" and at some points the narrator says a specific character and how they are feeling but he doesn't do every character.

I think that the setting of my book is the virtual reality "the game" because in the book it splits time with the real world. So half the time the setting is in the virtual reality and the other half it is in the real world. The real world revolves around the game so that's why I picked the game. The game world is a mirror of the real life world just in a virtual reality.

I am using the character Kyle and I think that he is the loyal retainer (sidekick) because once the main character Zack wakes up he is there. Zack played The Game and Kyle was his friend from before. Since Zack just woke up everybody wants to ask him how it was. Kyle is just there as Zack"s friend so I believe he is the sidekick.

The audience that this book is for I think is young kids that are about 10 years old. In the book the main characters are 11 years old. The author does not use foul language. Also since this book is about a basketball star as a younger kid young basketball fans would want to read this. But since this book is about a basketball player as a kid I think this book is for young kids and I think this book is for males.

In the book one kinda of minor character would be his his mother because she doesn't have big role in the big and she is a distraction for Amar'e and his best friends Mike and Deuce to save their basketball court. She is a distraction because she always wants Amar'e home before a certain time while he wants to keep on playing basketball to save the court.

In this book I am reading the main character Amar'e Stoudemire I think is a dynamic character because in the book he is changing how he likes playing basketball with his friends but it isn't that important to him until these teenagers try to take over their neighborhood court. As they try to take it over Amar'e focuses more and more on basketball until he can try to save the court.

In the book I am reading I think my book could be the quest because the main character Joe Stoshack goes back in time so he could write a report on Jackie Robinson. Also another possible option would be voyage and return because Joe goes back in time and has to come back to his era. I think my book is quest because Joe has to go back in time and learn about Jackie Robinson back in his time.

The type of conflict in the book I am reading is character vs character because the main conflict is about the antagonist of the book Ant. Also you could say the conflict is character vs self. Joe needs to learn how to control his temper in which that means the conflict could be character vs self. If I had to say the conflict I would say it would be character vs character because Ant tries to get rid of Joe Stoshack.

This book takes place in the Mississippi in the 1900's. The main character is Cassie brothers Christopher, John, and Stacey. They attend a mostly white school with them being African American. They kinda broke the bus and made the white students walk because of the racial comments. After this they had a huge strawberry incident with Mr.Simms shoving Cassie off the road and Uncle Hammer having a problem with that.

Little Man is synthetic because I can relate to him. When I was young I was just like by how he doesn't like getting his clothes or anything dirty. When I was a kid I didn't want any thing to be dirty and when it got dirty I needed to have it washed immediately. Also, I like how Little Man stood up to the teacher and how he showed how strong he is and how he will stand up to anybody.

The setting of this book is in 1947 and in Brooklyn. The team that Jackie Robinson is the LA Dodgers but back in his time they were the Brooklyn Dodgers. Back in this time Jackie Robinson is the first African American in baseball history to play. He changed the league forever but it wasn't that easy. Everyone was against because he was the first African American. The fans, players, even managers were against him.

The antagonist of this book I think is the mom of the protagonist. The mom is always worried about Joe going back in time. She doesn't want him to go but he does. Even though the mom doesn't want him to go she still allows him to. She isn't necessarily the bad character but she doesn't like when Joe goes back in time. The dad is could be an antagonist but he does go back in time with Joe to see the historic players.

The protagonist of the story is a kid named Joe Stoshack. He uses old baseball cards to travel in time to a big moment in baseball history. I think that he is very responsible. Saying he is a kid I would think that he would want to keep on traveling back in time and get all these guys' signatures. Instead he relives the moment with those players. He doesn't travel to get an autograph but to actually meet the player.

I am guessing this book will play along with the other books in the series and have the main character step in for the baseball player. Just like how in the first two books the baseball player gets injured and has the main character play in a iconic moment in baseball history.
