a long way gone ch. 8-9
It is so sad that his mind is playing tricks on him. Making him think that someone is after him. It's nice that he found a place to stay in the forest, but it's so sad that he was even in the forest.It is kind of weird that nature always holds an answer for him. Nature has a bed, fruit, and protection from wild pigs. If you think about it's weird that everything seems to happen at the perfect time. He ran into old "friends." That must have been a one in a million chance. It makes me vcry upset that everyone, that could, ran when they heard that seven boys were headed in their direction. It's just so sad that no one can trust one another anymore. I don't understand why the fishermen had to that cruel to the boys. It's cruelty that they took their shoes because they must have known what the ground would do to the boys feet. It amazes me that their are still good people during this war that help them get better and feed them. It is so strange that rap music has now saved his life three times. This book continues to amaze me.

I agree with you Daniel. It was very unlikely that he had a bed, food, and protection from the wild pigs. It was also very unlikely that he found some of his old classmates in the forest. I also found it sad that everyone who could run away from seven boys did run away. It is very sad that no one can trust anyone in that time.
although i agree with you that it is nice to not have to read the gory and graphic chapters i think that its important to read them because the reason we dont want to read them is because it makes us face the truth.
