Tuesday- October 6, 2009

Fiction:

  1. If you could change or add one part of your book, tell what it would be and why. What specifically would you change? What specifically would you add?
  2. Write a sequel to your book. Thinking about all that happened throughout your story, summarize what an additional chapter or next book in the series would look like.

Non-Fiction:

  1. Did this book change your thinking about the topic? How? Why? Is there one section that particularly swayed your view.
  2. If you could add or change a section to your book, what would it be and why? What specifically would you change? What specifically would you add?

  1. If I could change one thing about the book it would be the whole entire begining of the book because the begining was really boring, waist of time and had no point what so ever but I do have to admit the through out the book it started to get better. If I could add something to the book it would be pictures because the book didn't have any pictures and I hate reading a book without any pics, because without any pics I just waisted my time reading the book.

  2. If I could change any part of my book I actually would'nt change anything. The reason why is because I feel that all of the elements of my book play an important role in the following event. So if I were to change one thing, the whole book from that point on would be different. I also feel the same about adding an event. I would'nt want to add anything because it would completley change the meaning and the importance of the book.

  3. If I could change any part of my book, I would choose the part when Mr. Leroy dies. In stead of him dieing, I would make hime live. With him alive, he would help Elijah hunt down the preacher, thus giving them both a chance of finding Mr. Leroys money so he could buy back his family from slavery.

  4. If i could add something to my book, i would probably add some more to the end of the story.I would add more to the ending because it kind of just ends when he is laying in the hospitol bed recovering from the kid napping. I would specificly add about how he is feeling when he exits the hospitol (if he will change his ways or not) i would add what happens between Mitty and Olivia (do they start going out or are they just going to be friends) and the last thing i would add would be if his mom is going to let him wander New York City by himself anymore or what.

  5. If I could change one part of the book it would be that Peeta and Katniss were never engaged. I would change this because this engagement means she has to be with Peeta for the rest of her life. Instead I would want her to be engaged to Gale. Those two have a lot of chemistry and would make an adorable couple. I would definitely want to know how their loves would turn out with each other. Like how many kids, what kind of wedding, and who's house.

  6. If i could change any part that i want to in my book i would change the fact that Jack father hates him.I would change that because Jack is a very sweet boy and his mom loves him but his dad treats him like cow poo.Also I would change that because it is not very good to see parents hate there kids.That is the part that i would change.And why i would change it

  7. I would like to change her self esteem because the way she feels about her self is not healthy. She feels that she has to look a certain way and wear the latest fashion .but in my opinion she seem to be a beautiful person because she seem to be dating the hottest guy in the school. Ways I would help her feel better is telling her self she is beautiful and no one can take that away from me. Another thing I would say is no one can life my life but me.

  8. If I could change or add a part to my book I would add a part where Kelley hangs out with her friends, specificly Daniel, and they interact before the accident so the readers would know exactly what kind of relationship they have.

  9. If I could change 1 part of my book, Because of Anya, I would change the part where Anya's wig falls off during gym class. That is very embarrassing moment for Anya because only 4 people knew she wore a wig and she didn't even know that they knew. It like exposed everything that she was trying to keep a secret for 4 weeks. Then the worst part about it was that her mom promised her it wouldn't fall off. Everything went wrong that day.

  10. If i could add one thing to my book it would be that Sol and Giselle get married because the book is so depressing that if they got married it would have made the book not so depressing. Also, it was obvious that they liked each other alot and Giselle had already been through so much if they got married than it would have been like a fresh start for Giselle and she would be much happier. I also wanted to add that part because it would make me happy to see Sol and Giselle get married because i think they are good together even though Sol did cheat on her it seemed like he completely changed and really wanted to be with Giselle.

  11. If I could add one part to my book, it would definitely be a part at the end when Brian's dad finds out his wife is cheating on him. I would add a part where Brian's parents confront each other , make up, and start living togetother again. And Ms. Blum, I don't know how to add a hyperlink so for my Multimedia book project I went ot google images, looked up hatchet, and picked the one that said "Twente fan injured by hatchet..."

  12. If they wrote a sequel to the story, I'd like to see Andrea struggle with her powers. Maybe Paul or some guy could come along and make her look bad in front of everybody.

  13. If I could change one part of my book it would be when she runs away to go meet her real dad. If it were me I wouldn't have come back afterwards. I would have stayed in New York instead of going back to all of the trouble I had created at my house. I think if she did that it would have made the parents think more about the choices they made and it would have made the book more dramatic in my opinion.

  14. Fiction is when a story is not real meaning it's fake.For example "The Dragon Flew To Neverland".While non-fiction is when a story is real.For example "The Man Rode The Black Horse To The Sream".

  15. If i could change a part of my book it would have to be the beginning chapters. I wasnt really hooked to the book until the very end which made reading a little bit challenging. I would add more details and voice to make the plot more interesting to the readers. Since the beginning starts off with the main characters on the moon, this is already pretty neat but maybe if there was more pizazz, kids would find Feed more captivating.

  16. I would change the part where by the main character was confused about what to do about the group he has joined. I would change his past and i would like to add a part where his father never died. I don't think there would be any part but if there's another part i don't want him to repeat the mistakes he did.

  17. 2. If I could add or change a section of the book is the last chapter of the book when they had recordings of zombie attacks from 60,000bc to 2002ad they should have pictures of cave drawings or make the attacks into a timeline. Also, I would love to make the pictures into color pictures but thats about all the Zombie Survival Guide is a great book and doesn't really need any big changes. I really enjoyed this book and glad I picked it.

  18. My book is the sisterhood of the traveling pants and if i could add a specific part of the book it would be when Bridget is on the beach and she thinks of all the thoughts in her head such as why her mom died? was it fate? is Eric Richman ever going to know her real age? is she being a show off in soccer? These thoughts are consantly asked in the book and only one of her problems are solved. I would add that Bridget is at a loss in her life and her friends need to be incorperate in her problems or they will never go away and te pants will always stick wth her through life. In the second book (which there is) i think that the problems that the four teenage girls Bridget, Tibby, Lena, and Carmen will each solve their problems through the traveling pants and never forget the friendship that each and every one of them admire deeply.

  19. My book is called "Thumbelina". If I could add one thing to this book it would be that Thumbelina's mother never died. If i could change one thing about this book it would be that Thumbelina's father never died in the car accident because I think Thumbelina would be amuch better person becasue she would have her wonderful father to look up to, instead of her dumb step father that got her pregnant.
    :(

  21. If I could cahnge anything about my book, I would change how it ended. I would change how Alan finally defeated Leland. The book has him kill him with paper flowers. It was extremely stupid. So to make it more realistic, maybe something more simple, like shooting him or something. Or, since he's a demon, preforming an exorcism or dousing him with holy water. Anything other than flowers.

  22. If I could change one part of my book, I would make it so that Serius Black didn't die. He was the only one of Harry's like-able, wizarding family members left. He has already lost his parents and remembers little-to nothing about them. It seemed as if everyone who gets too close to him dies :( Very depressing

  24. If I can change any part of my book, "Looking for Alaska" I would change the part where Alaska dies. I think that it would've been very interesting to see what would happen with everyones relationships with ALaksa. I also think that Alaska was kinda the heart of the story and then she had to go and die! I was upset, haha.

    ReplyDelete
  25. What I would add would be that Asa's mom and dad get back together. In would add this to the story because Asa really loves his dad and it would make aAsa really happy to see his parents back together.

  26. If I could change one part of my book it would be the long conversations that take place in the book. Another thing I would change is the fact that Eddie is turn into a snake and make it so he is still part of the team. This is my multimedia peace I have chose this movie but I can't put it on here so can I bring it in or should I find out a way to put it on the blog.

  27. If I could chand=ge one part of my book it would be that Jen and her friends never die in the riot. I would change this because Luke was really affected by the tragedy.

  28. I would write an additional book that wasn't a sequel, but a prequel to the events that are foretold. A extra story that shares why such kind hearted people can turn so cold. Or maybe to explain why the father had become so distant during that time.

  29. I would add a part to where Jacob finds the right girl for him because he is feeling as if he "needs" Bella. Bella is in love with Edward and doesn't want to give him up because she loves Edward with more passion than she does Jacob.

  31. Did this book change your thinking about the topic? How? Why? Is there one section that particularly swayed your view? - It did change my view about the topic because I didn't know much about the Second World War and now I do, I have also made my opinion on the events that happened. One section that ..."swayed my view"... was when the war was between Japan and the United Alliance because it was a very big climax and most exciting part of the story.

  32. If I could add one part to the zombie survival guide it would be how to inform other people of a zombie attack
