Jack

The main character Jack I think does not understand what is really going on in the world. But there is nothing wrong with that, I would give Jack praise. As the book goes on he starts understanding what is really going on, or tries to understand to his best ability, and knows that they have to break free from that situation. Jack is a very brave little boy who loves his mom very much. He tries very hard to help his mom, out of fear that she might get hurt, but at the same time he is afraid. He does not know what to expect from the real world, and even though he wants his mom to come with him he knows that she cannot.  He wonders what the real world is like, and if his mom is lying about it. He is not sure what to do, and wishes he could wait to break free, but knows that they cannot. If they wait too long who knows what could happen. He just turned five why can’t they just wait till he his six and stronger. He wonders this, but also knows the answer to the question, but does not fully understand at the same time. He decides to be brave for his momma, because he will be the hero that saves his mom from the big mean man. This is why he deserves praise, since this has to be hard for him to do at such a young age.

Hawaii Reading

            So I just got back from Hawaii it was so much fun, I learned to stand up paddle board and I was very good at it, I also got to swim with wild dolphins, but the problem with going to Hawaii is the very long flight so I got to read a lot. I started reading Room. That book kind of scares me, it makes me think about what if that happened to me what would I do and I have no clue what I would. I would be at lost of how to handle myself and how I stay strong. Reading about her teeth made me feel sick to my stomach. This book makes me realize how lucky I am since I have all the things I could need and more, but they are living with the basic they have to portion everything they have. Most people these days do not even know how to portion their food and things. I do know if I could do what she is doing, taking care Jack while being so strong. I would break down I would not be able to do that. That poor kid does not even understand that some of the things on Tv are real that would be so hard to make someone understand something they have never seen. Room creeps me out, but I want everyone to read this book it is very hard to put down, even when it creeps me out a lot. I still have to sit and read Room.

So yesterday I was reading and forgot to do my blog last night I got sucked into the book. I have a few pages left and then I am done I cannot wait to finish it. I cannot believe what her parents did to her, and I cannot believe what Pete did to Zach. But at the same time I feel bad for him; he seems like a baby almost and does not understand what he did. I do not know what I would if I was Micah shoes. I also think it is cool that Micah is a wolf and now I believe she is at first I could not believe what she was saying I thought she was crazy or something. I am starting to understand why she lies now though, it seems like her parents find her as a problem more so then a blessing, which would be hard to know that your parents are lying to you every day, and then they just leave you without saying goodbye. I cannot blame Micah for being the way she is, she makes things up, and does care but does not at the same time I am not surprised at all. I feel so bad for that would hard for your parents to love someone more then you and think that they wished that you were the one that died and not the other person. I hope everything goes will for Micah that she goes to school and betters herself.
