It starts out on a hotel deck and then a bad storms destroys everything. Morris Lessmore wanders to a field and sees a flying woman. He then makes his way to the special library. Morris gets lost in a book literally , and then flys away.

The theme of the story is everybody’s story matters.

1.The book says “Every story matters”

2. He reads the dead old non-English book.

3.He gives the girl his story that he wrote.

# data[].attributes.body
I thought that it was really good. The author did a good job about the beginning and the whole flying woman thing by showing she has passed on but was passing on the job of taking care of the books. I think the pictures were fantastic (no pun intended) and the story was sadly happy in a way. On a scale from 1 to5 it earned 5🌟🌟🌟.

Capricorn Anderson is the person I chose for character analyze. Cap is a calm,tidy, confused person. One detail of why he is so calm is that he got locked in a libray for 2 hours and meditated to pass time and also doesn’t understand physical violence a detail for why he is always confused. Near the end of the book Mrs. Donnelly checks his room while he is at school and it was completely spotless, showing he is tidy

Home sweet home.I was face to face with Nero. Meg’s distant screams were aweful. His purple suit was torn in multiple places and singed from Leo. He gave an aweful grin and took off his coat. Under was the Roman simble SPQR. Calypso was next to the almost dead, again, Leo. I took out my ukulele, the tactile one Will gave me. And I was ready to strike. Nero took out his sword of imperial gold. I strummed and dodged. He ran at me quite slowly to be honest. I stumped one more time and blew him backwards landing with all thud. Meg screamed so loud that I thought it was going to make all the plants die. Leo grunted and then somehow launched a fireball at Nero which hit him directly in the chest. He screamed in pain. Meg screamed again and I couldn’t take anymore. Her screams were echoing through my head. I strummed so hard the ukulele just disintegrated in my hands. It hit Nero and he went flying about 60 feet through about a hundred different plants. I sprinted as long as my mortal legs could carry me. I had reached it but the noisi were already in her throat so I did the only thing I could. I reached down into Meg’s throat and let the noisi crawl up my arm and into my mouth. Everything went cloudy. I woke up in a warm place playing the most beautiful music like that of the Muses. Oh gods. OLYMPUS. I was back in Olympus. I felt strong and normal again. A way I had’nt felt in a long time. I was back. Home sweet home

At the beginning Apollo lands in a dumpster in Manhattan. “I never before crash landed in a dumpster”(Riordan 1). He proceeds to Percy’s apartment, and then to Camp half-blood. He goes into Dedaleus the inventors maze where he ends up in Delphi. He then travels into the woods and to the Grove of Dodonna. That is basically the setting breakdown.

When You Reach Me takes place in New York in 1978, and Miranda lives in a a worn down crummy apartment. The sandwich shop is another main setting. It has a bright ink jar with a bunch of two dollar bills. It’s connected to the school cafeteria. It’s also a pretty crummy place. One of the not so main settings is basically the Main Street. The laughing man lives on the road and near it her aunt has her grocery store. Those are the main settings.

I thought that the overall story of When You Reach Me was excellent and well thought, I also thought that the mystery behind it was was absolutely brilliant. I would give it a 5/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
