Caught In The Blizard- Paul Kropp

Significance
As you could see this book is title Caught in the Blizzard and later on you will find out why it is called like that. This book is important because it teaches you how there is people in the world that nothing stops them to save a person from a big event or disaster even if their are their worst enemy. I think we should care about this book because it sends out many messages that could help us change the world and change us to. I choose these book because it grabbed my attention when I read the back of the book a part of it said that Connor and Sam which were enemies had to survive in a blizzard (relates to the title) This book really helps people realize that everything could change for good or bad. This is a little quote that I got from reading the Book.

Perspective
This book was created by Paul Kropp and it is told from the perspective of two teens named Connor and Sam this two kids get trapped in a blizzard whit a girl named Annie and only because Annie did not called Search and Rescue so that the police wouldn't find out that Connor was abusing (killing) the animals for cash.

Evidence
There are two boys that are very different one of them likes hunting the old fashion way which is to shot an animal quick and fast so it doesn't suffered and eat it (Sam). But in the other way Connor which is a mean and selfish teen chase down a poor innocent animal until it's dead. An argument (problem) starts to happen when Sam tells Connor that hunting the way he hunts it's stupid. But what they do not know is that sooner or later they are going to have to work together. I know that the part when Sam told Connor that hunting the way he hunts is an opinion not a fact because probably some people that were in the setting might have though the opposite.

Connections
Well I think this book connects to the real world because some people in our world have enemies or used too and they never expect that they have to work together for them to be able to survive. This book was a mixed of two different ideas one of them was to have a boy of the past and another from the present which will be today so I think the book is trying to tell us that two different perspectives could join together. Well it could affect the future if we start being like Connor who just wants to make the animals suffered that soon enough we wont have animal to see eat or hunt.

Supposition
Well this book is not true so I can’t say that something will happen if this was not true or never happened but what I could tell you that this book is really good because it has a really good lesson of life. Something will happened if the author had changed the problem because a whole different story will had happened: say for example if it was an argument of colors and Connor liked blue and Sam pink and every one called Sam a girl only because he liked pink the problem would of have being different and the idea too.

This is a great book and if you want to Know more about it read IT!!!!!!!!

The Magician's Nephew-C.S Lewis


Significance
This book is important because it makes you go to another world where you don't know nothing about it and each time you read it it changes the form you think. This book is a fiction book so you don't have to think that you shouldn't care about it because the author wrote this book whit the intention of you the read it and enjoy it. He spend his own time working on it and not for us to hate it but instead to love it.I recommend every body to read this book because it has a lot of different chapters and problems. The reason i chose this book was because the cover really made me think about the book and also because i really wanted to read the first book before the 2nd one. I want to read the 2nd book because many people think that it is great.

Perspective
From my own perspective of seeing the book I think that this book makes you explore other places. The person that made this peace of artwork (book) was C.S Lewis. At the beginning of the book i notice that there was a problem or something suspicious it was that Digory Kirke couldn't go up stars were his uncle did most of the activities. but by accident when he met Polly Plummer which was a girl in London and made friends whit her they explore through a tunnel to wet to an abandon house but by accident they enter to his uncle room they were scared but that is where all of the action begins.

Evidence
The argument that is being made almost at the middle of the book is that the witch wants to rule London and make every one there slaves so Digory and the which start to fight or create and argument am evidence that i have that they are arguing is when the which tells him that whit her beauty she will make every one do what she wants. But what I think that this is a statement that not all of the people will believe.

Connections
This book is hard to connect to the real life because it is not real but i will try my best to do so. This book connects to our lives because we have many chapter in our lives as well as sadness happiness and suspenseful which the book has. there is another connection that i could make is that in the book there is true friendship as well in our world. I think that nothing will happen on the future because this book is not real and probably will never happen.

Supposition
I think that a lot could happen if the author changes one of the elements. If he or she change one of the settings the whole story will probably change because one of the places that both children go to is were a lot of action happens so if he change that place to another probably the witch will never come to their world. I think by reading this book help me anderstand that if you think that this is the worst that could happened to you you are wrong. that is a lesson I learned.

Ida B - Katherine Hanningan


Significance
Well these book is important because it has real life facts about life like many people have cancer and have to sell very important things maybe if your family has passed through these issue you will love these book because it relates to your life or theirs. I think we should care about these specific book because the story that Ida B is going through is really bad and her personality changes through out it we also should care because of the fact as you think that some people are going through these story makes you care about the book. i choose these book because it looked interesting from the cover so then i decided to read the back and it said that Ida B was a school girl so i showed it to my parents and they said O.K so we bough it and yeah.

Perspective
These piece of book was created by a writer called Katherine Hannigan she has written many other books not only these one. well from my perspective i think these book is really cool but not my favorite one these book does not relate to my life because i think that none of them had ever had cancer and make their head bold. well if i could explain these book to a 3rd grader i will explain it by using a lot of pictures and easier words.


Evidence
well in these book the authors gives a lot of arguments but i think the most important one was when Ida B had to go back to school because their parents did not had enough time to spend it teaching her so they broke the promise and send her back to school and that is where her personality changes. At the end of the book she notice that being mean is
not that good so she comes back to her normal personality.

Connection
These book connects to the real world because it has many things like the sickness of cancer, parents not paying attention to their children, and braking promises also having problems. well i think that it does not relate to my life or someone that i know because they don't have one of these problems. these book relates to others because of the story that she is telling and the problems.

Supposition
Life will be different if these problem had never happened by: we will never had the problem of having cancer and people changing by my point of view i think that if these will have never exist life will be easier and less extress full and less sadder a lot of people are suffering right know because of these.
