Character:one character is Peter. Peter is an
important character because if we did not have Peter
in this book we would have no character that had to
let go of his fox which would make no scenes to the
story. I also know Peter is a very smart boy, I know
this because I could tell he knew what to bring when
he left to find his pet fox that he had let loose in the
woods for his dad. This is important because in the
book he needs to have smartness to him or he
would not survive very long out by himself in the
woods. Peter also has a calm and determined
personality. I know he is calm because when he
broke his foot he was not crying to death from the
pain, like I would. Instead he took it in a much
calmer way that shows me he is calm. I know he is
determined because he decided all by himself to go
all alone in the woods to find his fox Pax. He had to
be very determined to find his pax.

Dear Ms. Koiles,  

You asked me why you think Runt is turning out to be a good friend to Pax and
not just leaving Pax to find a real friend. I think Runt is staying with Pax and being a
good friend to Pax because of Runt's baby hood. What I mean by that is the book told
us Runt lost his mom and dad at such a young age. that makes me think Runt thinks of
Pax as a parent. And not leaving him because Runt feels safe around Pax, like we feel
safe around are mom or dad.
This weekend I also finished chapter up to chapter 15 of the book PAX. In the
book PAX the main characters are Pax and Peter.( I am going to write this about
Peter) Peter wanted to find his fox Pax. but on the trip to get Pax peter broke his foot
when he was walking at night and tripped over a fallen tree branch. The next morning
he woke up to a person that looked scary but was trying to help Peter. The person (
Vola) Peter met helped Peter with his foot so that he could heal it and look for Pax
again. Then soon he could hopefully find Pax out in the woods.
One character is Peter. Peter is an important character because if we did
not have Peter in this book we would have no character that had to let go of his fox
which would make no scenes to the story. I also know Peter is a very smart boy, I know
this because I could tell he knew what to bring when he left to find his pet fox that he
had let loose in the woods for his Dad. This is important because in the book he needs
to have smartness to him or he would not survive very long out by himself in the woods.
Peter also has a calm and determined personality. I know he is calm because when he
broke his foot he was not crying to death from the pain, like I would. Instead he took it in
a much calmer way that shows me he is calm. I know he is determined because he
decided all by himself to go all alone in the woods to find his Pax. He had to be very
determined to find his Pax.
