Colobri post # 4 (final)

1. What character of this book would you like and would you not like to be your friend. why?

I think I would like "Rosa to be my friend because I could talk to her and let her know what her "uncle" is doing to her. I would also like "Rosa" to be my friend because she seem to be really nice and I would like to hope her find her parents. I would not like "Rosa's" uncle to be my friend because all he cares is about money and he does not seem to care about other people, he only cares about him and he is a lier. he lie to "Rosa" about been her uncle and he also told her that he try to help her find her parents.

2. If you could change something about the book what would it be. why?

I think I would like the author to change the fact that no one knows about "Rosas" mom I think that the book would be a little more interesting if the author adds to the book a story about "Rosas" parents. I think the author should tell people what happen to "rosas" family.

3. What is confusing about these book so far?

I think is a little confusing how the uncle lies to people about been blind and how he wants to be rich so much.

Question

What do you find interesting in these book so far. why?

I  think he is excited because know he gets to go to the same school as his brother and  learn different stuff and experience different   people, like  different type of friends and older friends.

2. How do think Francisco feels about his dad. with his moods?

I think he gets mad when his dad gets mad at him for no reason or for really stupid reasons for example when he was telling him to let him go to the dance with his brother. I  think Francisco feels mad and sad at the same time because he does not like when his dad gets mad at him.

1. How do you think Francisco feels about going back to the fields?

I think Francisco does not want to go back to them but at the same time I think he feel like he has to and he is glad his parents are back.


2. Why do you think the owner of the Main Street School give Francisco's brother his job back.

I think boss of Main Street School feels like Francisco's brother is a good person and I also think he feels like Francisco's brother is responsible and  he understands why he missed some days.

3. How you think is gone make Francisco feel about not been able to go to the dances where he was going with his brother?

I think he is gone feel sad about not going there anymore but I also think he is gone go there when his parents are not home, even if he has to go l with out his brother, and he is gone keep practicing when he has free time.

Question: What do you think is gone happen next?

What does this book make you wonder about? Why?

These book makes me wonder if Roberto and  Francisco are gone be able to send money to their parents because he said he was gone send her money every month or week and now that some one got into there house and got the money that Roberto had save to send to his parents and he got faired from his job even do that guy let him work for him again I  am not sure if they are gone be able to send it on time.

It also makes me wonder if Roberto's parents are gone think that Roberto is not working or he got faired and he can't find a new job and that would be bad for Roberto and his brother because they would not be able to buy food and other stuff so I think their  parents may get worried but at the same time I don't think they would, because they might realize what happen and wait a little more until they get the more.

Do you think Roberto and his brother are gone miss there family so much that they decided to go back and live with them?

I think they would miss there family a lot but I don't think they would go to   Tlaquepaque, to lived with there family because Francisco sounds like he really wants to attend school no matter what, and Roberto does not really seem, like he wants to get back with his dad, mom, brothers and his sister, He seems to like to work and hope his family by sending them money.

What do you think is gone happen next and why?

What in the book upsets you or bothers you? Why?

What most bothers me in this book so far is how "Rosa's uncle" only wants her because he wants her to find him a treasure. I also dislike how he asked her for the money that the guy gave her at church because he said it was for her and she sound like she really wanted to keep it . I also think it was wrong for her uncle to leave her behind just because she didn't give him the money. "Rosas's uncle" bothers me a lot because he acts really weird and I think he has mental problems.

What other character besides the main character is important on the book? why?

I think Rosas's uncle is important in the book because with out him she would't have a place to sleep or she would't have to many options for food. She would have to beg a lot more and live in the streets. Her uncle is the only person she knows and I don't think she would like to live all by her self.

what has surprise you in the book? why?

It really surprises me how "Rosa" dosen't realize the mistake that her "uncle" is doing to her. Even do he is not really her uncle I think he should stop thinking about money and he should at least try to hope "rosa" find her parents and stop lying to her.

Do you think "Rosas's uncle" has mental problems ? why or why not?
