Reading Log week 3

1 hour    "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee    pgs 324- END
Changes Over Time: In the beginning of the book, Scout was afraid of Boo Radley. But by the end, when Scout realizes he saved her life, left items in the hole by the tree, and put the blanket on her during the fire, she has a different perspective of him. She also gets more mature throughout the story, and feels more for others.
              "Boo was our neighbor. He gave us two soap dolls, a broken watch and chain, a pair of good-luck pennies, and our lives. But neighbors give in return. We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had given him nothing, and it made me sad."
               This shows that Scout felt more thankful for Boo for what he gave to her and Jem. She also feels bad for not giving back, which shows her maturity. In the beginning, she cared mostly about herself, but by the end, she realized to open up.

He finds his way to Camp Jupiter, a camp of demigods of Roman God descent. He meets Reyna, the leader, Frank, a demigod of unlnown descent, and Hazel, a girl with a curse and a tough past. Percy still remembers Annabeth, and vague memories of Greek, Camp Half- Blood, and friends.
                   "So you still don't remember any memories?" Reyna questioned.
                   "Nope not at all," Percy answered.
