Summary And Plot On Hoot

Im reading a book called "To Kill A Mocking Bird" by Harper Lee.  So far I am Part 2 Chapter 31, The sherif came into there house and realized that Jem's arm was broken. She also found out Boo Radley saved her and the 2 kids lives.  The sheriff was asking them questions, They were arguing wether that killing Bob was self defense or just plain crazy. After a couple minutes they realized that Bob fell on his knife thus killing him.

The plot of this book is when Bob attacks the judges widow. She was walking home from a halloween party.  She did not know she was being watched, he was planning to kill her and the 2 kids.  However Boo Radley intervenes and saves her and her 2 kids. He then stabbed Bob killing him, he then carried the body to Attics house. The cop try's helping Boo by saying that they tripped over a tree root and stabbed his self. In my opinion this was the plot of my book.

Workers Rights

Article


So the other day I was reading a article called  Bangladesh rescue operation near end; collapse death toll at 1,127. After reading this article I thought to my self Why?. Why are so many people put threw things like these, they deserve better. People need help from the government and the government has to help. These people were put threw all this pain and suffering to make our garments, the least we can do is help. The government has to inspect these buildings and make sure there a safe working environment. 1,127 people lost there lives because of a building that was not checked to be safe. In my opinion this is horrendous, how can people be put threw this. What happened too human rights? These people need the government to enforce there rights. Something that made me think more was "How come no one came to a senses and said lets check the building?". I thought about that because the building got on fire in November and killed 112. Why? You should read the article and tell me what YOU think.

Poem

The argument in the poem was how the worker felt trapped. She feels as if she is a machine that does the same thing over and over. The article explains how she say's "Seconds, Minutes, and hours go by - the days and nights sail past quickly" I understood this as her not realizing time passing by. The article is different from this poem because the article explains about a event that occurred when this poem explains about how the character goes threw everything daily. For example her daily thing or job, all the pain and suffering. I understood the poem as a informative like it was telling you about her daily thing or what goes on in her head everyday. You should read the poem and find out what people go threw when they make your clothes.

Hoot Summary and Reflection

Summary

So I am reading a book called hoot and is really interesting. For example, its a about a group of kids that try to save owls. The main kid is called Roy and his best friends are Napoleon Bridger or Mullet Fingers and Beatrice or curly for short. One of the big things thats occurring in the book is how Roy is being bullied on his way to school. The bully nicknamed Roy "Cowgirl" because well roy is from Montana.  Later in the book Roy makes one friend, his name was Napoleon or Mullet Fingers and he also made friends with this girl in his class her name is Beatrice leap, but she hates Roy. Until she starts realizing his a good guy. Then later on the form a group and right now there trying to save the owls from being removed from there homes to build a building. Come back next friday to see what else is new.


Reflection

I liked this book allot, it was really interesting and informative. The book would be a bit boring at times but when it would hit the climax it would get intense and good.  It would make me want to read more, for example when I would finish reading my 20 pages I would read until I finished the chapter because it was so good. I did not like the fact that there is not a sequel. The end of the book left me hanging, it did not explain what happened to the owls in the end or what happens to mullet fingers. Does he actually move in with his sister, will he care about school? I think that next year in high school i'm going to chose to read this book again because it was enjoyable. I dislike the bully, he was so annoying. He would always try to beat up Roy, he was just jealous that Roy was better than him. Roy was also a new kid so that might have been another reason why he bullied him.
