Isabel is brave because she had courage to spy on master Lock-ton and to go against him and help Mr.bellingham instead of helping her master she told curzon what was going on. according to page 65 it states" I thought it would be easy. I would run straight to the shed behind bellingham's house, tap on Curzon's window, tell him the news, and hurry home." also, another price of evidence is on page 33 it states "which one of you made that noise? Her face flushed with rage, her eyes darting back and forth between us. I did, ma'ma, I quickly lied. the smile on Ruth's face faded as she figured that something bad was unfolding. craaack! lighting struck from a blue sky; madam slapped my face so hard it near threw me to the ground. the sound echoed off the stone-faced building.

I think Isabel is breve because she stood up for Ruth and didn't let her get in trouble. Isabel is brave because when Ruth was laughing and Madam Lockton said who was that laughing and Isabel said she was the one laughing because Ruth have Seeger's  and Madam Lockton slapped her (pg# 33).  Isabel is also brave because she left out the Locktons without anyone knowing  (pg#64).  Some people may say Isabel is foolish because she left out the Locktons house to talk to the other slave.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that Isabel is brave, not only brave but courageous. She knows that her and and Ruth are free and are willing to do anything to get her and Ruth out of slavery. Even if it means sneaking out and standing up for herself even though she is a slave and can get beat by doing so. She is also brave because she will do anything to protect her sister no matter what happens to her. She is brave because even after her mom died and her other master died, and she didn't know anybody she kept it together and looked after her and her little sister. Based on the text it said "Ruth and me are freed pastor, Miss.Finch freed us in her will. Momma too."It shows that she is speaking up saying her and Ruth are free. It also shows she wont give up to getting her and Ruth's freedom. Isabel's brave because it states "This house was not a safe place. I had to get us out of here. I opened the latch, slipped out of the gate, and ran." It shows she's brave enough sneak out and go to Curzon's home to tell him everything, even if she could get caught and beat. She did it for her and Ruth.

# data[].attributes.body
I think Isabelle is brave  she stands up for herself and her sister like for example Isabelle  argued about her freedom too , Mr. Roberts "Mr. Cornell , he'll tell you. Ruth and me , we're going to get work and a place of our own "that's enough " pg.10 she will do anything  to be free and she speaks her mind a lot she always takes matters in her own hands especially hen it comes to freedom " I saw the will sir she said firmly".

# data[].attributes.body
I think Isabel is Brave because she stands up for herself and her little sister Ruth. She is also Brave because she try's to escape from her owners and become free in the world. In the book it states "My cheek burned, but I fought back the hot tears and tried to swallow the lump in my throat. No one had ever slapped my face like that, not once in my whole life. Better me than Ruth, Better than Ruth." (Page.33) This shows that Isabel doesn't want her little sister to get smack so she stands up for her and takes the hits. "Ten circles to the left, Ten circles to the righty all make the blade sharp and mighty." Isabel sneaked out her owners home and went to explore, This is really brave of her because she knows the consequence of her actions. This is why I think Isabel is Brave.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that Isabel is heroic because she stands up for Ruth and does anything for her and Ruth freedoms. Isabel sneaked out the Lockton's to go talk to Curzon about the news that happened to Ruth. Isabel is heroic because if she was to be found sneaking out the Lockton's,  her consequences will be severe. In the book Chains by Laudrie Halse Anderson page 64 it states, "If I opened the gate, I might die or fright. I headed my head against the gate. I could not open the gate. I could not open the gate. This house was not a safe place. I had to get us our. But there was no way to get out, no way to run away off island, no way to run with a little girl. The secret of Madam's linen chest was the only key I held. I opened the latch, slipped out the gate, and ran." This piece of evidence shows that even though the consequences were poor she still took a risk and sneaked out the Lockton's to go tell Curzon about the news about Ruth. Also, in the book Chains by Laudrie Halse Anderson page 9 it states, "Ruth and me are free, Pastor, Miss finch freed us in her will. Momma, too, if she lived. It was done up legal, on paper with wax seal." Mr.Robert snorted. "That's enough out of you girl. Time for us to be on the road to Newport." This piece of evidence shows how Isabel is chatting with the Pastor and finding excuses for her and Ruth can be released and not with a slave owner.

In conclusion Isabel is a tough and courageous person, she take risks and takes up for her loved ones.

I think that Isabel is very brave girl because she say's whats on her mind and speaks up for herself. Even though Isabel was sometimes telling lies about somethings just to get out of trouble like on page 34 Isabel told us that she was telling a lie herself. On page 54 Isabel was trying to get water and told the little boy that was helping her " don't ya'll know anything about a wishing wee over here?! , You all should look into it" she was risking herself a whooping from the slave owner, the little boy could go back and tell the slave owner that she was getting smart and she can get beat.

Isabel is very FOOLISH for putting her self into danger a lot like going out in the dark by her self while there soldier's walking around holding weapons.
but there also lots of evidence that she's brave such as the statement i just said above  and when madame ask who made the sound and then she got slapped hard but that is what make her foolish for doing things and saying things that could get her in lots of trouble like in page six ''I told you to move'' Mr Robert snarled at me "Apologies sir" showing that she'd would say anything he wanted to say with out thinking of the risk so that's a reason i think she's rely footage for the things she say.

But overall her dream is to just be free with her sister.

I believe she is brave because she had the guts to go out in the middle of the night when she knew the consequences of her going out in the middle of the night and what can happen if she gets caught. "If I opened the gate, I would be a criminal... I thought it would be easy. I would run straight to the shed behind Bellingham's house, tap on Curzon's window, tell him the news, and hurry home. (PG, 64-65) Another time she shows bravery is when she took up for Ruth when she snickered. "I did ma'am, I quickly lied.  Craaack!

I believe Isabel is brave because she was able to take a risk in getting her freedom. She is also pretending like she don't know anything to make the Locktons think she won't have a clue of whats going on. She has decided that she will be a spy, so it can help her get freed. p.89 "I am a bookcase, I thought. I am a piece of furniture, not a girl who will remember every word spoken in this room"
p.90 "The study fell silent, i feared the men would hear my heart beating."

I think that Isabel is brave because she could get caught spying but she is acting like she isn't a spy.When she was spying on Mr.Lockton's conversation but pretended to be sleep so Lockton wouldn't get a idea she was spying.On page 92 it states" Lockton needed to believe I was a sleepy servant, unaware of his plans." She knew that she could've got caught so she pretended to be sleep which was smart and brave. She is also brave for taking a hit for Ruth. I know because on page 33 the text states"Her face flushed with rage, her eyes darting back and forth between us. I did ma'am, I quickly lied." She didn't want Ruth to get hit because of her illness but she got hurt, Which was brave. She was in pain but knew she had to be there for Ruth.

I believe that Isabel is brave. Isabel is a brave teenager because she wasn't afraid to speak up about things that she felt needed to be talked about. One example of this is when she told Miss Mary Finch that she didn't want Robert Finch to be her keeper because of his ways. "Mr.Finch was filled up with trouble from his dirty boots to the brim of his scraggly hat.(pg4)" This is just one example of how she is brave. Another example of Isabel showing bravery because she took the blame for her little sister. "I did ma'am," I quickly lied.(pg33)" This shows bravey because even though she knew that she would've payed the price for Ruth she did it willingly.

I believe that Isabel is very foolish. I say this because if her plan fails then she could be in a lot of trouble ("We're to be freed sir" pg.9).

Therefor she shouldn't even be trying to get something that will inevitably backfire ("You're selling us?" pg.10).Instead she should try to get on her "masters" good side, and all the while she's making a background plan that nobody knows about.

( pg 9 and 10) Isabel knows a secret that nobody knows. she left out the house to tell Curzon the secret. According the text " I quickly told him everything I had seen and heard. " Another piece of evidence is " The gentlemen took some with them, but Lockton placed the rest back in the chest.Then i was sent to fetch more wine. The chest was gone by my return." These are the reasons why Isabel is brave

Isabel is BRAVE, Lets argue!  Isabel is over here spying on these people, risking herself to find out what they be doing knowing that she can get into some real trouble. Despite the repercussions she isn't scared all she worried about is for her and her sister to be FREE! (Pg.64) "I could not open the gate, but I had to open the gate. This house was not a safe place. I had to get us out." Isabel was extremely brave here. She knew that slaves were not supposed to leave out the gate and if she was to get caught she would be charged with a crime and face serious consequences; but she didn't care, the safety of her and her sister meant way more to her. (Pg. 33) I did ma'am, I quickly lied." Isabel was brave and also a great sister here because she took the blame for her little sister knowing she knew her sister couldn't bare what Ma'am would of done.

In the book Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson, from what I have be reading so far I would think that Isabel is a brave person but can be foolish at times.
On page 10 it says "You're selling us?" the words flew out of my mouth before I could weigh them. This can show that she's foolish in a way but she is still brave for not even thinking about the consequences of her action. Also on page 64 she thought about the what might happen if she opened the gate, like her being arrested if she gets found out passed her curfew. Then asking her mom to watch over her as she opens the gate to find Curzon. This shows her bravery by taking risk that may back fire on her. One last quote for proving Isabel's bravery is on page 83 when Curzon tells Isabel to be patient and the army has bigger fish to fry compared to her, and Isabel says "And I have bigger fish to fry than your army."
this shows how shes also foolish because she said this with a little more confidence than she really felt but she was bold enough to say this, kinda she her bravery in a way.

Isabel is brave because she has the courage to be a spy and go against her masters (the Locktons) and helped Bellingham instead by telling Curzon anything suspicious happening with the Lockton.
