My Side of the Mountain

Monday / 11-29-10 / week 7 / pages 45-END

I finished the book! He lived in the tree for about a year with his pet bird. It was a hawk named Frightful that he caught when it was a chick and trained it to be hunter. He ate deer and a bunch of other animals. He got some visitors too. It was never really dull because he made friends with animals. He had a blast until his whole family came and burned out trees for themselves. That was great but the bad part was that his mom was going to make him live in a house with her until he was 18. That kind of stunk. That was the end. It was an OK book. Not the best book in the world....... but it was pretty good. I enjoyed it a little.

They go camping. They use navy hammocks to sleep in. They get a good laugh when they both fall out of them. They hear a loon. They woke up because their butts touched the ground in the hammock. His dad jumped up because he saw the car slowly moving backwards toward them. He ran and put a rock under the wheel. Then they went back to sleep. They woke up and bathed in the lake. They ate breakfast and Sterling sang a song.
