He could of easily went back to his cousins house and tried to find his father, but he knew his father would rather have him take the things home. Another example of internal conflict is in chapter 2. Tim didn't know who side to be on. He tried to look and both perspectives,but he didn't who was right. 
External conflict: In chapter 13, when Tim saw his brother trying to stop the thief from steeling there cows but end up getting framed.

On page 16 the text states ..." He'll lead us through the Lobsterbacks like a hot knife through butter." Which is a example of a simile.
On page 22 Tim states " I can hear father breath as he have climbed a mountain." which is a example of a metaphor.
On page 54 the text states "...Thump thump." Which is a example of Onomatopoeia.]]> 2017-10-26 19:36:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/201007557 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203671469 I believe this was overall a good novel. Why I say this, because they had real life examples. I believe the book would of been better if is had a better ending. One thing I liked about the novel is they didn't sugar code anything. Example is in chapter 14 the text states, " Tim cry's out, ''don't shoot him!" Shots ring out, and Sam writhes on the ground , jerking, on fire from the shots and still alive. Quickly, one of the soldiers shoots again and Sam stop moving." That tells me instead of them saying Sam died they gave me brutal details. Also, what I dislike about the novel is they didn't talk as much about Tim mother. It's like she's kind of irrelevant,. If she had more of a opinion the novel will be more interesting. Other than that, the novel was very successful and detailed.]]> 2017-11-05 19:27:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203671469 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203673471 2017-11-05 19:44:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203673471 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674060 2017-11-05 19:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674060 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674254 2017-11-05 19:50:17 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674254 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674444 2017-11-05 19:51:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/203674444 ejoh5175 https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/215235116 2017-12-11 21:50:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ejoh5175/39uks0d1xu0g/wish/215235116
