Chapter 1-11 Questions

1. Choose two of the characters in this book and write a short description of each of them. Provide as much detail as possible about their physical characteristics, relationships, and personalities. Ask your Blogger Buddy who their favorite characters are?

2. Describe the woods next to the cottage.

3. What amazing fact about the Tucks is revealed? What do you think about it? Ask your Blogger Buddy what they think too.

4. Have you ever felt like running away like Winnie? Why or why not?

5. Tell about a time when you were told a fantastic story that was supposed to be true, and you were not sure whether or not to believe it. Ask your Blogger Buddy to tell about a time this may have happened to them.

6. How was the home lifestyle of the Tucks different from that of the Fosters?

7. Find a simile, a metaphor, and a personification in your reading. Remember a simile compares things to one another by using the word “as” or “like”. A metaphor compares two different things, but it does not use “as” or “like”. A personification is giving an animal or object a human characteristic. Please note what page you found your type of figurative language and type out the entire sentence that you find it in.

8. Start an on-going conversation with your blogger buddy about the advantages to living forever and the disadvantage to living forever. Tell them what you are thinking after reading this much of the book and they will tell you how they are feeling about it as well. Ask them WHY they feel it is an advantage or disadvantage.
