Reading Reflection #2

 

 

Book: The House of The Scorpion

Author: Nancy Farmer

Pages Read: 21-40

 
The House of The Scorpion.

                                                                     
Getting further into the book, the story continues. The curious little boy Matt decides to run after his new friend Maria, in this I make a prediction. I believe our friend Matt is about to get into trouble, and this is where our story is going to start.

… We also later on find out Matt is a clone! In this story clones are made for workers (ill make sure to get to that later). The clones are made and their brains are basically fired but, Matt was allowed to keep his brain which leads me to the prediction that Matt has a very strong purpose in this story.

Pg.35, I made a Text to Text (T-T) connection. I’m slowly opening my eyes to this novel and I am realizing this book, and the way it’s written is much like one of my favorite book series, Maximum Ride by James Patterson. There is a strong connection between these two authors and their writing forms.

Till Next Time.   C

  1. This reflection seems a little short. You drawn in interesting connection between this book and the series "Maximum Ride". Be more specific about this, in what ways are these two alike?
