Today’s Agenda:
💀 Collect favorite phrases, sentences, words.
Watch for interesting words, phrases, and sentences.
Examples --
A favorite part: "Now he could see the Milky Way, see it as he had never seen it before, a glimmering shroud across the arch of the sky" (95).
Another:
"His guardian [Silas] looked almost heartbroken then, and Bod found himself scared, like a child who has woken a sleeping panther" (164). This reminds me that one of Mowgli's guardians in The Jungle Book was a panther!
💀 Continue to prepare for creating a map of Bod's graveyard.
or To create an article, "Secrets of the Graveyard Revealed," describing the characters.
