How Would the story be different if it took place in a different time or setting?
I think that the story wouldn't change a lot if it changed time.If they went into the future then I don't think they would have any technology because they live in the country.If it changed setting like the states then I don't think that they would have trees around a lot especially if you lived in the city.So it's a good setting with a good time.

Grade your story out of 10 and fully justify why
I would probably give my story a 9 out of 10.But I'm not saying it's a bad book.I would give it a 9 because I think that it does have adventure, but too much silliness for me, but if you like silly books then you should really read The Magic Faraway Tree.I would recommend it to people who like to read about funniness and silliness, so if that's you.READ IT!

Tell how a character changed in the story and why you think this change occurred
I think Rick changed a lot!He used to be so silly and now he is more caring,mature and always thinks about others.That happened because he went on a journey, like the land of topsy turvy or like the land of toys!!

Compare a character to someone you know
I think Rick would be like my friend Amber, even though they are different gender I think they are alike because they both get excited easily and they are really energetic.They are also alike because they are never quiet and they love to play games and have adventures.

Reading activity #3
List three important events in your story and justify why you choose these events
I think one of the most important things would be when Rick arrives because he is their cousin and there is only one boy kid so it would give Joe some boy time.I think the next most important part would when they tell Rick about The Magic Faraway Tree because he meets Moon face saucepan man and all of their friends.The last important part would have to be when they go back to the house and the adventure is over because they have a great time even though they didn't want to leave they had to.

Reading activity #1 the book I'm doing is The Magic Faraway Tree
Name and describe the main character in your story
The main characters in this story are Joe,Beth,Frannie and Rick but I'm going to describe Rick.
Rick is fun to be around and I figure that he loves adventures because when he heard about The Magic Faraway Tree, he wanted to go right away but it was night and he could hardly sleep.So I think he is adventurous, and so he is my favourite character.

How would the story be different if it took place in a different time or setting?
If the movie changed to our time now then I think it wouldn't change it a lot.But I think that it would change wizards and dwarfs to soldiers and other people.If it changed settings for example the city, the movie would change a whole lot.Like they would be searching a city full of people.So the time and setting they chose for this book is a very good choice.

Reading activity #7
List three important events in your story and justify why you chose these events
I would say the first important events that happened in the story was when he defeated the trolls, because they were the first monsters that Bilbo defeated.The second most important events would be when he met the dragon, because he would know what he was going to try and fight and that it was HUGE!The last one would have to be when Thorin one of the dwarfs die,Because Thorin was one of the most important people in the book and if you haven't already read it then you should.

The Main character is Bilbo
He was first very glum as an apple plum doing what he would usually do.But after he had the adventure of his life he would never forget...He was brave,shocking,terrifying.From what he was before,He has turned into something everyone will love.That is my favourite part of the story.

Tell how a character change in the story and why you think this change occurred
How Bilbo changed throughout the book
At first Bilbo was a normal hobbit.Until he met Gandalf a wizard . Gandlaf persuaded Bilbo to come on an adventure and hobbits never go on adventures they don't like it, but Bilbo is different he wanted to try something new so he went.After he went on his first adventure he became courageous,brave and the most extraordinary person in this book (in my opinion),he was AWESOME!!!
Reading activity #4
Compare one of the characters to someone you know
I'm going to try compare Bilbo to Brie
First off they both start with B and they like to relax and have peace and quiet.They also like to have adventures and be different to everyone else.By different I mean, Bilbo likes to go on adventures when hobbits never have adventures.Brie lets say, is an awesome dancer and loves to be a leader more than anyone else I know.

Grade your author out of 10 and fully justify why
I would also give the author (J.R.R. Tolkien) a 10!
I would give them a 10 because I love the books he writes like the hobbit and lord of the rings.He is definitely one of my favourite authors for making the hobbit book because that book is one of my favourites.So you should definitely read one of his books if haven't yet.Because believe me, you're missing out on a lot.

My card writing
Card 2
Rock climbing
I struggle to climb up the rocks like a dog trying to catch a cat up a tree, and every where I place my foot rocks fall.My mum calls out for me at the top of the mountain, I look up at her,I lose my balance and fall down but not too far.Unfortunately, I grazed my knee.Anyway, I started to climb again but very slowly like a sloth, and hopefully I don't fall down again.I keep hearing rocks falling behind me and the fierce wind pushing against me.I can also feel all the bumpy rocks while I'm climbing.I was almost at the top and then I could taste all the dust going into my mouth (yuck) and I can see the very top of the mountain.Every one was waiting for me and I could smell the picnic my mum was preparing, and the delicious chicken wings.I rush up the hill like a sprinting cheetah, and I finally get to the top of the mountain, and I was so hungry I could eat a a whole pig.I get to eat at last.YAY!!!.After that I was stuffed.THE END
Similes and metaphor
- I struggle to climb up the rocks like a dog trying to catch a cat up a tree
- Anyway, I started to climb again but very slowly like a sloth
