A Dog's Life by: Ann M. Martin
The first picture is of a stray dog. I picked this picture because the main character, Squirrel, is a living as a stray dog. The book is in the perspective of Squirrel. Squirrel has gone through some hard times as a stray dog. Throughout most of the book, she is a stray dog. Squirrel wasn't always alone. She had a mother and a brother. The mother left both of them in the shed. The brother, Bone, was there for him after that, but then was taken by a girl. After that, she eventually found a friend.
The second picture is of a highway. I chose a highway because more than once has Squirrel ended up on the highway. One time was with his brother. That's when George and Marcy found them, and took them home. Marcy wanted to keep them, but George did not. This is a very dangerous place for them to be, because they could get hurt by the cars.
The third picture is of a mall. At a mall is where Squirrel was separated from his brother, Bone. While they were staying at George's and Marcy's house, George did not want them. George then took them to a mall and left them there alone. They had injuries after being thrown out of George's car. A girl then came and saw Bone and Squirrel. She only took Bone, and left Squirrel there at the mall.

The fourth picture is of a trash can. Squirrel loves to go through the trash to find food. The first time he went through he trash was with his mother and brother. After he was all alone he always went through trash. The time he was with his brother in Marcy's and George's home, they both ran to the trash and got in trouble for making a mess. For some reason, Squirrel loves the smell of garbage. Every time he smells it, the garbage lures her toward it.
Great job Diana! I love the pictures that you chose and I agree with them a lot! The only problem is that the picture of the mall and the trashcan should swich places. Otherwise, great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I fixed it.
DeleteWay to meet exceeds!!! Your blog was perfect, and I didn't see anything wrong. I think it's kind of sad, when you see a stray dog digging through trash cans. It was kind of wrong how a girl left Squirrel alone.
ReplyDeleteNice job! I really liked your blog. I haven't read the book but you explained how the picture ties into the book really well.
