Your examples were good, too. And now I want to know why the boy hacked up the snake.

She seems very intelligent at times, but is manipulated so easily. She seems very caring for others, as long as it is her little sister, and so heartless for others, demanding to know what's in it for her before she'll help overthrow the government.MikeShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873919941047794748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3902531908845941139.post-34175122305429631902013-06-10T16:14:57.909-04:002013-06-10T16:14:57.909-04:00Such great examples and ideas to consider!Such great examples and ideas to consider!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01294308714313220666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3902531908845941139.post-14823003684834743322013-06-10T09:57:30.445-04:002013-06-10T09:57:30.445-04:00I don't think I've stumbled across any rea...I don't think I've stumbled across any reading where I'd see a character do something out of context without explanation - well not yet anyway!

Maybe it's because I haven't found such book, or the issue didn't jump out at me because I was tired. Hmmm.Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.com
