Chapter 20 Question

The constable is an odd character to me.  At times he seems upset, then tired, and still other times he seems like a pretty easy person to talk to and a reasonable person.
-Describe what kind of person do you think the constable is, use TEXT EVIDENCE to support your answer.

Chapter 19 PART 2

Today in class I compared the Man in Yellow to a snake because I feel that he slithers up to people and sneaks around trying to get close to people.

-What else could you compare him to?  It could be an animal, another person, a person from another book or movie...below please compare him to something else and explain why they are alike.

Chapter 11 Question

In this chapter Winnie seems at first to be having a good time.  She's eating flapjacks (does anyone know what those are??) and some bacon when suddenly she states "I want to go home."
-What happened?  Why do you think Winnie all of a sudden wanted to leave so badly?  (hint: read the top half of p. 57 again)

The Tuck family is really growing on me.  The more I read about them the more I like them and even feel bad for them.

Why don't they have any friends?
