Miranda carries around a battered book that she has probably read a hundred times.

I have watched The Fault In Our Stars about 7 times. It is one of my favorite movies because it’s super sad and relatable. I have also read the book three times. So I always compared the differences between the book and the movie.
ReplyDeleteThe best book I ever read is probably Paper towns because it’s super mysterious and sneaky. And there’s so much revenge and it’s just a super funny book.
I think the author included Markus in the plot so that the book would be more interesting and to make the readers want to keep reading. I think they added Sal to give a twist to the book.
What little details tell us so much about her? I think Miranda’s mother would be a terrible mother because she steals. Details such as not wanting to do her job and stealing show us that she’s kind of a terrible mother because she’s teaching her daughter it’s okay to steal.

I haven't read either of those books, Sakura. I will check them out. I wonder if there are other aspects of Miranda's mom's behaviour that hint that she could have a good heart though?
DeleteANSWER
ReplyDeleteYes, I have seen the movie Holes like 10 times. I don’t know what makes it so interesting it is so funny and intriguing.
The best book I have ever read is the hunger games catching fire.
I think Marcus punched Sal because he was maybe jealous because he does not have a friend to walk home with
Yes I think she would be a good mother because she seems loving and she also lets her help practice for 20 000$ pyrmid.

I like Holes too, Carson. Great book and great movie. Those guys are tough and determined, but at the same time show that they can be good friends. I liked the story about the onion farmer too. I wonder where they got YELNATS from?

1. Yes, I absolutely love ‘The Amazing Book Is Not On Fire’! I find the book hilarious, and to me it’s re-readable. Lots of people don’t get what it’s about, because it’s by two YouTubers. But I watch those two YouTubers videos so that’s not a problem for me.
2. Like I had said, The Amazing Book Is Not On Fire.
3. Maybe Markus is linked to some sort of time travel? He might have punched Sal because Sal was going to hurt Miranda emotionally? Or something bad was going to happen to Sal, so to prevent it was to alter the events that had happened?
4. Miranda’s mom seems like an okay mother, but I might not get along with her very well. I’m not very social with my family at times, but it seems like Miranda’s mom is, so there might be some arguments or conflicts there.
Ada B.
Great answer, Ada. I like your idea that Markus may have punched Sal to alter some event that takes place - good thinking! About Miranda's Mom: Sometimes opposites can get on though, because they compliment each other.
Delete1. I like reading the magic haft. It’s one of my favorite books. I have read it so many times.
ReplyDelete2. My favorite book is Smile. It’s about a girl who knocked out her two front teeth.
3. Maybe when they were little Sal said something bad to Markus and he hadn’t seen Sal till then so when he saw Sal he got revenge.
4. Miranda’s mom would be an ok mom. We have learned that her mom steels things from work when she is upset and she is going on a game show and she is trying to win the money so she can quit her job.

I like the book SMILE, Sarah, it's a great book. What do you think that organizing weekly meetings for the older tenants in the building tells us about Miranda's mom?

We have learned a lot about Miranda’s mother. Would she make a good mother? What little details tell us so much about her?
Yes, it’s called fullmetal alchemist and because don’t have the money to buy books because they cost a lot at chapters.
RULE OF THREE because #1 it has a lot of action, #2 because it’s about a worldwide blackout.
Because Markus is from the future and Sal will do something to Miranda so Markus went back in time to save Miranda from sal!
Yes, #1 because she is supportive and that is about it.
Tristan.T
You have some good ideas, Tristan, particularly about Miranda's Mum, but they are very short. Giving more detail is vital. Yes books can be expensive, and mostly we only read them once, but that 's what is so great about libraries! :-) Remember, you must answer in full sentence answers such that the reader can know what the question asked you.

1. Yes I do have a book that I have read over and over again it is smile because it is funny.
2. I think the best book I have ever read is The Underneath because it is sad and has lots of adventure. Also it has animals in it.
3. Maybe the author included Markus because he did something special that has something to do with the main idea like time travel, and maybe he punched Sal because he was having a bad day and was mad.
4. Yes she sounds like a good mother except the part where she swipes cards from work when she’s having a bad day at her office. The little details it tells us about her is that she works at the front desk at a lawyer place and doesn’t like it, she had to quit school to become a lawyer because Miranda was born, she is a single mom and has a boyfriend named Richard, also she is getting ready for a game show called $1000 pyramid.

I like how open minded you are about Miranda's mom. I agree that she would make a good mom. You and Sarah both share the same favourite book :-).

1. I have read diary of a wimpy kid over, and over again because it is so funny.
2. The best book I have ever read is, probably well… I have two series that I could say. One is Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and the Sisters Grimm because, it’s adventurous and has humor and confusion plus, you never know what twists come up.
3. I think Marcus is in the story because maybe he might have a special part in this story, considering from what we have read. In what we have read, he pushes Sal 5 days ago in front of Miranda, and then the next day Miranda asks him the time, and 5 days after he has no idea who Miranda is. I think maybe Marcus punched Sal because he had a bad day, and he was mad, and needed someone to vent his anger out on.
4. I think she would be a nice mother because she looks like a nice mother. But, if she had to stop one thing, I would make her stop swiping cards from her office if she is having a bad day. The little details are that she is a single mom, and she is getting ready for the game show called $1000 pyramid. She has a boyfriend named Richard, and she works at a front desk of a lawyer place. She does not like her job because she wants to be a lawyer,so this is why she is doing the game show so she can quit her job.

It's interesting that Markus doesn't seem to remember Miranda. I wonder how Richard feels that one of his employees is "swiping" stuff from work? Awkward?
DeleteQ• Do you have books that you like to read over and over?
ReplyDeleteA:Not really, but I do have one book that I’m reading right now that I think I will read over and over again.
Q• What is the best book you have ever read?
A:The current book I reading right now which is Red Queen. My sister read the book first and loved it so she got the second book called Glass Sword.
Q• Why has the author included Markus in the plot? Why do you think he punched Sal?
A:The author might have put Markus in the story to show that not all people who do bad things one time are all bad or not as smart. Markus might have punched Sal because he is jealous of Sal.
Q• We have learned a lot about Miranda’s mother. Would she make a good mother? What little details tell us so much about her?
A:I think Miranda’s mother would make a good mother because she is very helpful and never gives up. But when Miranda’s mother doesn’t like work she will “swipe” things so that tells me that when she doesn’t enjoy things or gets frustrated that she can do things that she might regret but other than that she seems like a pretty good mother

1. One of the books I like to read over and over again is the diary of a wimpy kid series book one to ten.
ReplyDelete2. One of my favorite and one of the best books I have ever reed is the legend of Zelda manga series.
3. I think Markus punch Sal because his actions overcame him and that’s why that happened.
4. I think Miranda`s mom would be an bad mom to have Miranda`s mom is a bad mom because she steals from her office at work and she takes when this doesn’t like work or has a bad day and she’s bascule showing Miranda it’s ok to steal.

1. I do have a book that I have read over and over and it is called Warriors Super Edition Mothflitght’s Vision and Warriors the prophesy begins Into The Wild. The best book I have ever read is Warriors omen of the stars The Last Hope.
ReplyDelete2. I think Markus is included in the plot because Markus’s family has a secret grudge against Sal’s family or he is the person who is leaving the notes.
3. I think she would make a good mother because she is very a logical person. She named Miranda after the Miranda warnings because she thinks everyone should have such important information.
1.Yes, I do have books that I like to read over and over.
ReplyDelete2.The best book I have ever read was Trackers and Airborn.
3.I think the author included Markus in the plot because he is a time traveler and he makes the story come together. I think he punched Sal because he might have thought he was an old enemy.
4.I think she would make a good mother because she is funny and nice. The details tell us that she is smart, competitive and, mysterious.

• Well, when I don’t have a current book I’m reading, I read “Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” for the 5th, or 16th time because, well, why not? I like to reread the book to see how the series goes. But, usually I read “Jedi Academy” by Jeffrey Brown, a couple of Jay’s books like “The Hobbit”, or maybe a bathroom reader because I’m bored to death sometimes.
ReplyDelete• The BEST BOOK?? Hmm. I have many, like, “The Hobbit” or “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”. Why? I dun no. Maybe it’s because of the story or the fun or magic.
• I think the author has included Markus in the story to see that a bully can be a nice person or a genius (That can TIME-TRAVEL!) if talked to. Maybe Markus punched Sal because He did something that upset Markus and he wanted payback. Or maybe he prevented something from happening, as he said in the note “I am coming to save your friend’s life”, so he time-traveled back to save him. Or maybe because of some time travel thingy that Mr. Nixon hinted about whoosh yeah time travel.
• Miranda’s mom would make, well, she has some good traits and bad traits about herself. Like she’s competing on a game show to win $20.000 (I think that’s what it is), she cares a lot about Miranda, and she goes to jail to give pregnant women advice about how their children’s life would be. And she has some bad traits about herself, like she ‘swipes’ materials from work when she hates it, and, (I think this is a bad trait) she leaves an extra apartment-key in the place of the broken emergency fire extinguisher. I think that’s a bad trait because anybody can use the key to break in and rob the house, and I suppose the key has the room number for anyone to see. SO I think Miranda’s mom is an interesting mother.

(Also, we know Markus uses time travel, you “said” it yourself, it was obvious, we knew it all along! ‘kay, bye!)
Is his name Marcus, or Markus?

1. No I do not have a book that I like to read over and over.
ReplyDelete2. The best series I ever read is Sister’s Grimm.
3. I think Markus is the time traveler. I think Markus punched Sal to prevent something in the future.
4. I think Miranda’s mom will make an okay mother. Miranda’s mom is short, dresses funny and when she doesn’t like work she steals something from work.

1)Yes I did have books that I would read over and over again when I was younger.
ReplyDelete2)The best book I have ever read Is called ‘’The Candymakers.’’
3) I think Markus is included in the plot because he is the time traveler and he is the one sending her all the notes. Also I think he punched Sal because he might have thought that Miranda would share the notes with Sal.
4) I think Miranda’s mom would be a good mother, the little details tell us that Miranda’s mom may be in a little bit of poverty.

1.)The book I have read many times and will always stay on my shelf is Charlotte’s web.
ReplyDelete2.)The very book the I have every read is Charlie and the Chocolate factory.My second favorite is The BFG.
3.)I think Markus was included in the story (when you reach me) because it shows Markus is a bully and sometimes when bullies are talk to they aren’t as bad as people say they are.My theory on why Marcus punched Sal is that he is jealous of Sal.

1. Big Nate easily sly
ReplyDelete2. Diary of a wimpy kid
3. Because Markus is the laughing man
4. Because she helps pregnant woman in jail

1. The best book I have ever read is The Hunger Games
ReplyDelete2. I think the author included Markus to show that there are bullies in life even in books and you just have to learn to put them to the outside and focus on your real friends.
3. Well I think Miranda’s mom is an ok mom because sometimes they fight. Me and my mom have never fought in our life.
4. My favorite books are Twilight and The Hunger Games because there is never a boring part in them.

ReplyDelete2. The best book I have ever read is probaly Airborn.
