Right now I'm still reading The Revenge of The Shadow King. By Derek Benz & J.S. Lewis. If I were in my character shoes I wold freak out and hope that its just a dream. I wold call the police and tell them what is really going on so that they can protect me. I wold freak out because I don't want to have to deal with a bunch of dangerous creature everyday. And I don't want the whole world life to depend on me.I don't want to have a teacher that is a witch that always trying to kill me when there are no people around. " If Logan didn't come, Morgan Lafey would of killed me. I owe Logan again". I can not handle this character case, I do not have the gut to do what my character are doing. Its not that I cant but I need friends and  family to help me, if we all together then we can defend our world. But it is not easy to make people believe you. Not everyone will have the same thought. If I were in this world, I wold wold study about witches and goblin and find out how to destroy them. The task that my character have is very hard, the hold world depend on his hand. If he die the shadow king will take over the world. I'm not sure what can I do but I will tell you guys when I finish the book.

why do you say the woods are weird and crazy?

Jordyn, I said that the woods is weird and crazy but I meant to say the the woods is spooky and creepy. In the book the author describe the woods very neat, (The woods look like a ship in the mist). So this is why I think the woods is creepy.

Week 7


It is important for readers to understand what is happening in their books, who the characters are and what the theme is. In your response, outline the following: Plot, Setting, Characters, and Universal Theme. Provide evidence to support your thinking from your book.


This week plot is the group was lost in the wood. Last week is max have to decide should he go in the wood or not. Now they enter the wood. And Natalia already mark the way as they go, but the forest is very weird. When they keep going, they found a spot that they already mark, and Harley just realizes that there are many mark in deferent place that look the same too. 


 I think the universal theme for this plot is Human Nature. I say that because the group is in the forest, and forest is part of nature. The group enter a weird forest, and the forest is like a maze. the setting in this plot is the woods, midnight. The conflict is Character vs. Nature and Character vs. Supernatural.

 Right now one plot that happen in my book is Harley ran over Dr.Blackstone. They was looking for clues, and out of no where Natalia came and tell them that she saw a shadow walking in to Iver house. They came to Iver house and spying on the shadow. When the shadow walk out side of the house, Harley rush his bike down the hill and try to hit the shadow. The man said "ouch". The group recognize the voice, it's Dr.Blackstone. Harley was so scare, so he ran away and so did the group. I think the Universal Theme in this plot is a message from life ( Decision ), I think you need to know what happen first then make your decision. Because you never know what is the consequences. The setting in this plot is, in front Iver house, midnight.

 In my book right now, an event occur and make the Gray griffin very sad. It's Iver, he is Max teacher, but he got attacked by the witch and disappeared. 
 Right now Max and his new teacher Logan is trying to figure out who Max really is. After Max get to know that he is the Codex Spiritual guardian, Max need to make a very hard decision, whether he and his friend get the Codex back or wait till they have more fighting skill. I think this decision that Max have to make is one of the Universal Theme. I think decision goes with Message about Life. Max decided to go get the Codex back, Max know that this can put his life and his friends life on the risk of dying. Now Max, Ernie, Harley, And Natalia Is in front of the woods, preparing to face Morgan Lafey ( the witch ), Ray, and shadow king.

The character that I will tell you about is my Main character best friend. Natalia is one of Max three best friends. Every time something strange happen, she cry. That is one way she express her self. Another way is loving, she's a lovely girl, she care a lot about her three best friends. When Ray was setting the house on fire, Natalia don't care what happen to her, she just trying to help her friend. Even though she past out, she still trying to help her friend. But something magic happen. The rain was very hard when Natalia past out. Natalia express her self through love. It is important because, when some one do what they do, can tell other people what kind of person is that character.

9/20/10

In my book, the author did a great job describing the main character in my book. He describe every single detail that you need to know about the main character. The first character, my author describe his age first. My second character, the author describe the looks first.
