1.Yoko is very shy I say that because she was very nervous and afraid to dance and shake hands with the damaged souljers. I also think she is very generous because she gave dried fish and water to the pregnat lady. she is very young and her attitude represents that for exsmple at first she didnt want to share her blanket with a freezing mother and baby because of blood. she also likes writing I could tell because when she had to leave she tried to bring her writing things.
2.IN this point in the book ko and yoko's relationship isn't normal becuase what there going through has put them in moremature state. I can tell that yoko respects ko because she listened to what she has to say and does whatever she is told by ko. She is honorable because she bosses yoko around in my opinion.
3.The kawashima family was extremely nice to the passengers by lending them water food and as much help and mental nurisment as possible. If I were them I would find it hard to help people who are so desprit and sick which was what ws happening with yoko.

dragon rider post 4
I read for 2 hours and 30 minutes and I have read 75 pages since the last post.
I think it it was wierd how twigleg survived the first day with Ben(human). It was wierd becuase homunculus(twigleg) die the first day they bond with a human. In my opinion twigleg bonded with ben so twigleg should be dead. Twigleg is a tiny creature that you can make with flesh and blood wich appeared gross to me at first. Twigleg is the evil golden dragons slave, nettlebrand who I learned through reading farther that nettlebrands armour is fools gold not gold but few people know that because it is a embaricing secret for the dragon. Although twigleg helped firedrake (dragon), sorrel(brownie,(cat)) and ben shew the fayries away, it was ony because he wanted the group to get farther in there journey to find out the secret of the rim of heaven to report back to his master(nettlebrand). But twigleg could have done it for the reason above and for the human because he is beginning to bond with him in my opinion.

DRAGON RIDER POST 2
I read for 2 hours this week and loved the part I am reading. I read 75 pages.
The most evil charecter so far is a dragon named nettlebrand. He has many servents who he eates if they don't do what he wants them to do or dosen't please him. He also has a tiny servent named twigleg who cleans nettlebrand's golden scales, tells him stories, sharpen's his claw's, scrubs his moulth and does whatever he want's he also had seven brother's who were eaten by nettle. That is only a couple of example's of how evil this golden-dragon spoiled brat is, he used to hunt siver dragon's which is what the main charecter of the story is and now he landed in this mean dragon's territory who sent twigleg on a mission to follow firedrake (main charecter) to wherever he goes to see if he lives in a pack so nettlebrand can hunt a whole pack of silver dragon's.

DRAGON RIDER POST 2
I am reading Dragon Rider by Cornella Funke. I read 75 pages and am enjoying the action and mental picture I am getting when I read.
Qusetion: Have you had action or drama in your book? What kind and what was it?
My favorite part in the section I read was when it described firedrake (dragon) slithering in the water like a snake in a canal.
I enjoyed that part because I really like dragons and I could picture the movie anacanda with a dragon replaced with the water snake.
The coolest part of the section was when the dragon let out a sigh and "it showered blue sparks" which was quoted from the book. I liked that because I could see instead of water in my shower it would be blue sparks.
Vocabulary:
conscientious: Basically rebelling against athority
gazed: To stare at a object with intrest, pleasure, and curiosity
ruffled: To disturb or or irratate
manifesting: To be obvious and open
eavesdrop: to listen in on ones private conversation

DRAGON RIDER POST 1
the book I'm reading is dragon rider by cornella funke. I read 25 pages and am enjoying it so far.
Question:how many pages did you read and why?Whas it hard?Do you enjoy it?
my favorite part was when sorrel and firedrake start to pack for there long journey to the ring of heven. I liked that because it was really drimatic and kind of stupid because they were setting off for a place that doesn't exist.
If I were to switch a thing in the story it would be the conversation because it was long and had no action and I like action so it relates to me in a opposite kind of way also how much the dragon's use fire
Vocabulary:
clinging:basically to leach on to something or to hold onto in a vary firm manner.
peevishly:doing something like tour irrated and snappy
thorouphly:complere and perfect
tedious:long and tiresome
huskily:means to be big and strong
