Afterwards, Jim comes back to Will walking home and they come cross a flyer for the carnival coming to town to Jim's curiosity and interest and Will's skepticism, and Jim asks Will if he is mad at him for leaving him to go to the theater to Will's denial. Will goes home to see his mother and father, and realizes that his dad also has the carnival flyer but seems nerved by it it. Will stays in his room despite wanting to stay downstairs, and hears his father burn the flyer and leave the house though his mother is asleep, unknowing. At Jim's house, Jim has a conversation with his mother of not wanting to have anythings that can have the potential to hurt him, but his mother saying that he is going to have to experience pain to grow in his life. Jim also contemplates taking the lightning rod of his room going against his cautious and observant personality just to change things up and watch the consequences of his decision. ]]> 2018-10-09 02:38:09 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290543825 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290545888 Point of View: third person omniscient

The way how the author writes Jim and his mom's conversation is very descriptive, letting the reader paint a picture in their heads of what's going on and Jim's perspective and his mother's defense. I also think the writer is continuing to write Will's and his dad's strained and strange relationship very well, keeping me interested and in suspense with it being out of the ordinary and established before the book begins. I am also glad the lightning rod salesman has made another appearance, since the author has done such a great job establishing characters making me anxious for the plot to kick in instead of more dialogue heavy chapters.]]> 2018-10-09 03:00:43 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290546845 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290547729 Will Will's father's relationship ever improve with him and his wife?]]> 2018-10-09 03:07:55 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290547729 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290547891 Jim's personality type is exactly the same as Raven from the show Teen Titans, which I really enjoy]]> 2018-10-09 03:09:09 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290547891 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/290548139 Valise- a small traveling bag or suitcase.

These chapters end with Will confronting the Dust Witch, snatching her hand, and watching her sink to the ground from the air with a hot air balloon while he climbs down from a tree safely. I enjoyed reading these chapters as I'm relieved to see Will and his father's relationship finally going on a good path, am interested to see more of Jim and Will's newfound dynamic with broken trust, and am glad Will is getting time to shine and show the audience how quick-witted he is with his confrontation of the Witch, which also was a great insight to how his character works, perceives things, and motivation for things.]]> 2018-10-26 00:59:58 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/297231091 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/297232510 Why doesn't Will or his father want Will's mother to overhear their conversation about philosophy?]]> 2018-10-26 01:09:42 UTC https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/297232510 prin2014pres https://padlet.com/prin2014pres/h0c0xsjltk4n/wish/297232719 Will's motivation and plan of action is very parallel to mine as I act on my own when the people I care about are in trouble.

This shows that even though the experience of going on the carousel was now revealed to Miss Foley after her desiring it for so long, the end result of her becoming a scared child was the opposite of what she wanted, taking away all her experience, making her crazy.

He also realizes the truth of Will and Jim's situation of hiding from the carnival people, still trusts them, and tells them to stop by the library at seven where he'll hopefully have a plan for their next course of action. The Dwarf tells Mr. Dark Will and Jim's hiding place under the sidewalk's grille by Mr. Tetley's cigar shop, and he rushes over there only to find them gone. I enjoyed this section of the book because Will's dad is growing more and more developed almost every chapter now, and its satisfying to watch him and Will's relationship progress because of this.
