If Sophie had not been taken by the BFG, her life at the orphanage would have been miserable. Her life would have also been boring because she does the same old routine every day!

# data[].attributes.body
We think she may have been adopted and she would have rich parents. Sophie would have had a bowling alley, swimming pool, and a hockey rink. She would have gone on to be the President!

Sophie would have hated life because everytime she goes to bed there is a moon beam and she can not go use the bathroom. She lives in an orphanage because her parents died of left her. Her life would be soooo sad ans i feel so bad for her because she can't go to bed.

# data[].attributes.headline
If she was not taken, her life would be just fine. Bland and somewhat boring, sure. But we live it every day, and it sure is better than getting killed by a giant. But who knows, we have a lot of the book left, so maybe she won't die.

If Sophie was not caught by the BFG she would have to wait and live a sad life because no one would come to adopt her. I also think that she would be scared to go to sleep every night, because I know that if I saw a giant I would be scared to go to sleep to.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie had not been taken by the BFG her life might have been worse, because Sophie may have been caught by the people in the huge foster home. She also may have looked out the window for no reason and she may have fell out of the building, and may have died. I also think that the people of the house should just let the kids in the orphanage go to the bathroom, I mean it's a free country.

If Sofie hadn't been taken by the BFG then her life would have been the same thing she was doing before like chores and working.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie was not caught by the BFG, I think Sophie would still be looking for giants during the night. Sophie might also still be with the other kids at the orphanage. She might even be adopted if the BFG would not have taken Sophie.

# data[].attributes.body
is Sophie wasn't caught by the BFG, I think that she would still be sad that she had to live in the orphanage till someone adopted her. In the book it says that she didn't like the orphanage.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie wasn't snatched  by the giant she would maybe get lots of friends and get adopted.She would have lots of fun.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie wasn't snatched by the giant she might find someone to play with because she would have more time at the orphanage to find a friend. Her life could be miserable

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie wouldn't have been taken by the BFG her life would be the same as always. An orphanage is not the best place to stay for the rest of your life and that's probably were Sophie would be. And Sophie made it clear to us that she did not like the orphanage.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie hadn't been taken by the BFG, she wouldn't have a story to tell. Since she is being taken away by the BFG, her life is  about to change.

If Sophie would have probably told everyone about the BFG and no one would have believed her.

If Sophie wouldn't have been taken she wouldn't have been able to experience what it was like to be taken by a giant. She wouldn't have believed in "magical creatures"if she wouldn't have been taken.

Sofie would be an orphan forever and should would not have any freinds.

I think that Sophie wouldn't have been taken by the gaint, she would have.....
A. be adopted by a family, and be loved or
B. Not been adopted and grow older without a family to love her.

I personally believe that had the BFG not taken Sophie from the home her life would be pretty stale. She would grow up without her parents or be sent to a foster home where she would grow up, get a job, and eventually die.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Sophie's life would not be scary if the BFG had not taken her.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if Sophie had not been taken by the BFG, her life may have been pretty bland and boring and she wouldn't experience anything "magical" or if she had seen the giant and the giant hadn't seen her, she may live in constant fear that the giant may come back and be afraid of things that might happen to her.

I think if the BFG didn't take Sophie she would be in trouble for being p at night. I think she wold have been at the orphanage for the rest of her life.

Well if Sophie had not been taken by the BFG, her life would have been totally different. First of all she would have never known about the giants roaming around. But also I feel as if her life would be horrible without being captured , because she is in a horrible place and she shouldn't be there. As far as we read I can tell she is in an orphanage and it is a horrible place.

# data[].attributes.body
i think Sophie life would be like a little better than not knowing where she is or anything like that. but she would still be at the orphanage and she would still know her boundaries a

# data[].attributes.body
Her life might have been like boring and she would have never been on an adventurous ride with the BFG. She would have been doing the same old thing over and over again.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if Sophie had not been taken by the BFG, she would have just lived on the same way. Her life would have only changed because of the memory of seeing the giant.

I think if Sophie wasn't taken by the giant her life would be terrible and would be rough. I think this because after what I have read so far I can tell that the orphanage is cruel and disrespectful. They obviously don't know how to take care of children.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if Sophie would not have been taken by the BFG this story would have never been written  I believe if she had not been taken, because it is told in her point of view, this story wound not have been written.

I think that Sophie's life would not have been very good. The rules say that if you are caught out of bed past curfew, there are serious consequences for your actions. They don't want anybody roaming around during the middle of the night. Thankfully, the           BFG snatched her up before she could get caught. She also could have been very frightened for the rest of her life. She probably wouldn't be able to sleep because she would always have that feeling inside of her that there are actual beings walking the streets in the middle of the night.

I think Sophie would stay in the orphanage until she's about 6 or 7, then get adopted by a couple who is unable to have children, or she'll leave the orphanage on her own in search of her actual parents.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if the BFG had not taken Sofie, she would've lived a normal life. When a giant takes you out of your bed, that is life changing and I think that this will effect her childhood. I think that when the BFG took her, it affected the course of her life. If the BFG had not taken her, she probably would've lived a normal life. That is what I think her life would've been like if the BFG had not taken her.

If Sophie had not left with the BFG, she probably would live a non-fantasy lifestyle. She wouldn't believe in magic or creatures in the dark. She has to learn how these things are real and I think it was a good thing for the BFG to take her.

If Sophie hadn't been taken by the BFG, her life could have gone in any direction. She could have gotten adopted by and wonderful family and have a dog and live in a perfect house. Sophie could also have never been adopted and have to stay in the orphanage for the rest of her life.

# data[].attributes.body
If Sophie had not been taken from the BFG I think her life would've been like her life before ,but she tries to tell her guardians that their are monsters and giants roaming the streets at night. Her guardians don't listen too her and think she is crazy. When she is a little bit older she will make an alliance called the WHH or Witching Hour Hunters who prove to the people that their are monsters and that the people must stay asleep at night especially 3:00 A.M. She also hunts down the Giants and monsters so they don't cause any harm during the witching hour.

Since the BFG hasn't eaten Sophie yet, we think life might be good with him.  If Sophie stayed, she might have a horrible life if.  She might be lonely because she doesn't have parents or siblings.  She might get picked on in the orphanage, go hungry, or get yelled at a lot.

Some of us thought she might have a good life at the orphanage playing with friends.

This is our idea for this week's discussion question: We are thinking that Sophie would be in a lot of trouble if the BFG didn't take her during the witching hour. If the BFG didn't take her, she might be in danger of being taken by other giants. Sophie's life would probably be miserable because she would have to stay at the orphanage for a long time.

If Sophie did not get captured by the giant her life would be boring. We think her life would be boring because she would still be laying in her bed. If Sophie did not get captured by the giant, we think her life would be depressing. Sophie would not have any adventures or make any new friends.
