blog post #5                               reading responce for independent readin book

   i am reading a book called Broken by Kelly Armstrong. this book is about a girl named Elena, or should i say she is older? That is because Elena is a wherewolf, so she could be 40 to 500 years. elena is pregnent with her husban clay. elena, clay, and jeremy are all in a pack. jeremy is their leader/alpha wolf. elena may have unleashed jack the ripper because of the letter that jack was put in by a mysterious sourser that they have not yet met. i am up to the part where elena and the pack are on an adventure to put jack the ripper back to where he came from. mean while, elena is having scary dreams about her baby dying at birth because  of the confusing conflict if its going to to be wolf, human, or both. elena is confused and unsure of her self.

   in the way beginning of the story elena has a dream that she is in wolf form but she is giving birth but something doesnt feel right about the birth finaly the baby arives but its all mangled and bloody she screams and wakes up. elena,clay, and jeremy say its all right but elena doesnt think so. now she is worried about her baby. i think that elena should be worried too because anything could happen and sometimes dreams reresent the future or the past. she should also be worried about the unleashing of jack the ripper because elena and the gang think he is zombie or imortal.

   i really enjoy this book. i really think that it is interesting. i love books with vampires, wolfs, and other imortal creatures as you might know from my previous reading responce.this book is very conflicted and intersesting because of jack the ripper wo is after the wolf pack and elena who is pregnant. i like think kelly armstrong is an inspirational writer

   the drummer boy of shiloh by ray bradburry is about a young boy named Joby. joby is a drummer boy for for his army.joby meets the general in this passege. in the passege joby is very unconfident about the war and himself.after all ''joby only has a drum and two sticks to beat it'' he does not have any protection in this dangerous war.the general trys to build up jobys confidents. i remember the time in sixth grade and it was my first real play. i was really scared i didnt have any confidents and kept asking "what if i mess up?'' but in the end i did very well and my mom,dad and sisters were really proud. joby lacks confients.

   joby lacks confients and does not no what to do because he is about to enter the huge world of war. in the beginning of the story joby is trying to sleep but he is way to nervous to close his eyes. joby is scared something bould happen to him.''i got only a drum, two sticks and no sheild.'' this shows that joby is very worried that he has nothing to protect him. this is a huge problem that joby faces. what will build his confidents?
 
   joby later meets the general. the gereral and tells him comferting things like: ''you are the heart of the army'' which is true joby is the one who shows who they are and makes the soilders feel alive. joby starts to feel better and feels a lot more confident in himself. at night before bed joby'' firmly and slowly turns the drum up so it faced towards the sky'' this shows that joby is very prod of being a drummer boy. the general is a very strong and wise character and always knows what to say.

  in conclusin, joby is confient and should be confident in who he is because he is a very inportant adition to the army. when i came to greet my family at the end of the play i knew i was a very importan character to the play and every character was special in his or her own way.
