Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children: Blog post #3

Book Predictions: ( I have yet to start reading it. I plan to start this weekend)
I believe that this book will be slightly creepy, but also interesting. I think this because as you flip through the book, you can see pictures of the kids who are at the home, I would assume. The pictures are definitely creepy.

The main point of this article is being a mother. It is all about how awesome mothers are, and what they can do for the world.
"What we had were loving hearts and a mother bear's instincts." This perfectly shows how amazing mothers are. They had helped a little boy who had lost his own mother. This line is simple yet effective, because it shows how much mothers really have that instinct and love for their children and others children.
Three Questions i would ask her are:
Why did you start writing?
Where do you get inspiration for your articles?
How do you express your voice in your writing?

what does this work tell us about people? Blog post #2

The authors of one of the books i am reading right now made a choice to have a very defined line between what is good and what is bad in this book. They make it very clear who is evil and who is good. I think by doing this they showed that greedy people are more likely to do bad things or be attracted to bad thing, or evil, or darkness, what ever you want to call it. In this book, the main antagonist is constantly being followed by "tendrils of darkness" as they call it. Basically they are little slimy octopus tentacle like things that follow her around. So by doing this, you can easily tell who is good and who is bad. But back to the idea at hand, I think they make Nefert, the antagonist, bad because she is greedy, and all she wants is power. She is willing to do anything to get that power. If that means she has to kill more than a few people, then so be it. She will not hesitate to trample over you in order to get power., she will do everything within her power just to get more power. Because that's the only thing that really matters to her. She is a greedy, power-hungry, murder. So that is what i think they are trying to suggest about people. Put the option of power in front of a greedy person, they will do anything they can to get it.
