Summary and Character analysis

In the book A Child Called "It" by Dave Pelzer. From were I left off I have read that David has come out to the police and the child services have been helping him get away from his abusive mother. The court day came and he stood proudly restating what had happened and that he wants to be a warden of the state. David said he felt bad leaving his mother but knew that it would be better for himself.  " I fully realized that Mother could not physically harm me." As a child to have to come to terms of leaving his mother that shows his own bravery and the want that he has to get better.
        David the main person in the story is very brave and courageous. I know this because even though his mother continued to abuse him he stayed with her. That takes some courage to stay when you're being abused. If I were David I would have told somebody right away. In the text it states that " I can feel the inside of my body begin to shake. For a moment I close my eyes, wishing myself away. In my mind I can see myself walking through the door. I smile inside" This proves that David inside is broken but when he comes back to reality he puts a smile back on.

Tolerance

Tolerance: The ability or willingness to allow the existence, occurrence, or practice of something in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not agree with.

    Tolerance to me means to be able to stand things that I don't agree with. I can be more tolerant to people, when they continue to tell a story I hear a million times before. I just need patience to get through it. I can live a more tolerant life when I take things slow. If I'm always rushing then I will rush to my actions and do things I normally wouldn't do.
     In school I notice these certain things about people that bother me but then I think, what if thats their way to let out stress, or maybe their mad and that their little "tick". When it bothers me I just walk away and keep my mouth shut. This has helped me be able to have patience with people that I can't walk away from. In the future hopefully I will be able to tolerate other things.

Invisible

That one time that I felt invisible was when I was 5. When my little brother was born I felt like my parents attention drifted from me to the knew born child. When he was born I knew that things were going to change but I didn't know that I was going to be completely ignored. See I felt like I was being ignored but that wasn't the case. I was really only not getting the same amount of attention that my baby brother was. Since then I have grown to know that I was always loved and nothing would change my parents relationship with me.

Summary and tough questions

In the book " A Child Called It" by Dave Pelzer, so far I have read that the main character David is only nine years of age and is living a life of regret and shame. Though he has no reason to, his mother is making him believe that he is worthless and a piece of garbage. Davids father isn't as bad but he lets the mother abuse him until David is almost knocked out by the pain. This book is nonfiction, it is based on his life growing up, he has other books after this one. One day David gets fed up with all the painstaking beating and just left one day. He ended up going into town on a late night and going into a bar or pizza place. People in the restaurant were surprised he was there because it was late. So of course the called the 5.0. That same night he was taken home by his dad and as we can assume he was beat when he got home.
     One of the tough questions was when he questioned himself about leaving his family. Would he get caught? Would he die? Can he survive? These were things running through his mind, he wasn't really sure what he had to do to survive. David always though to himself maybe ill do better with out my mother and father, I was never really wanted. If any child feels like that they should really seek help from a trusted adult, anyway back to the topic that was one of David's toughest questions that he made to himself.

summary and Character Analysis

From where I left off on this book, Agent Harris from the FBI is the main reason the original Falconer case was turned down. Due to this he has to carry the guilt of having to stop the search party because it has been to long and it is costing to much money to continue the search. Though we know that Meg is still out there.

Meg is a brave and courageous girl. I know this because from the beginning I read that she fought before she even went inside the van, she kicked and screamed before she entered the van. Also in the story I read that even in the search party she was keeping herself strong even though she was not being found. That shows bravery.

Summary and Memory Moments

Based on where I left off in "The Abduction Kidnapped by Gordon Korman" I saw that Aidan, Megs brother was still willing to risk every inch of his life to save is sister. Even after the abduction he still ran after the van. In the text it states that he got onto a scooter and started going after the van that grabbed Meg. Aidan is a brother that is willing to sacrifice himself for his sister. Now in the book I have read that he has been different and is having the FBI come in and search everywhere for Meg. Now thats a brother that I would love to have.

Now that Meg is abducted Aidan begins to have flash backs of him and his sister. In the story it shows or tells how they grew up together. To read that they had a close relationship when they were younger is amazing. This is how I knew they were memory moments because they were flashbacks.

Summary and Character Analysis #6

In the book The Abduction Kidnapped by Gordon Korman. So far I have read that the main character Meg is living a regular teen life with her brother Aidan and her family. They argue, laugh, and have lot of family time until that one day. It was Aidan and Meg alone and out of no where a van comes up behind them and struggles to take Meg. Aidan was the one who was yelling for help but no one paid attention. Aidan fought with the man in a spiderman mask, then the driver said " They're calling the cops lets go", that caused the man to leave Aidan beaten on the ground and alone.

The character Aidan is a very brave young man. I know this because in the story he was the one to fight back when they took Meg. He was the one screaming to call 911 while he was fighting the kidnappers. In the text it said that Aidan said "call 911, someone help" while he was trying to get his sister back. That clearly proves that he was a brave brother and was willing to get hurt for his sister.
