  1. Some thimgs that i value would have to be family friends most of all planes. I also like privacy and football. My charater probably values intellagence, secreacy, probably not sports because hes realy weak and small. But he also likes to cause panic and hysteria. One more thing that he also likes is friendship; he will do anything for it. He even told this kid how to make a bomb just so he would be his friend...that kid later blew his own thumb off haha.

  2. The book I am reading is "Tom Swift and his Giant Robot" by Victor Appleton.

    1. I like playing all kinds of sports and I like hanging out with my friends. Tom likes inventing thinks, flying in palnes, tracking down crimnals, hanging out with Bud, and helping his dad with work. We are similar because we both like hanging out with our friends.

    2. Erin I would want to go to the moon like the setting in your story.

  4. The book I am reading is "Tom Swift and the Giant Robot" by Victor Appleton.

    1. In the passage Tom goes up in the sky and flies his plane. THis reminds me of when I have flown in airplanes to different states.

    2. Zifeng, I would not want to be at the setting in your book because I would not want to live at an orphange.

  5. Well in my book BRAINBOY AND THE DEATHMASTER the main character is locked up in a lab with no windows or source of communcation so he never got to talk to his friend back at the orphanage. Later, in a massive multiplyer online game, that his capture created, he meets his friend he never seen in months and he was so happy. Sometimes I'll meet a friend from the past and havethe same excited happy feeling that the main character got.
