The Shadow Children - Haddix - Among the Hidden

W.A.L.T retell a important part of the story

This term in reading we are doing novel studies. We had to choose one of the four books, Among the Hidden, Holes, Freak the Mighty and Number of the Stars. I chose 'Among the Hidden'. I am going to tell you some parts of the story. This novel is about a boy named Luke and he is the 3rd child in the family. In the population law is says that there should be only 2 children(s) in the family. If the 3rd child finds out then he or she might get arrested, taken away or may be killed. There were my friends in my group, Axle and Vann.  Our group had read to chapter 10 and then retell from chapter 1-10. We could do a comic strip, a powtoon or other things.

Axle chose a comic strip and invited Vann and I. I was the writer and the colourer. Vann was the writer and the designer. Axle was the Illustrator and the script writer. Also I did some of the front and back page. Later Axle told Vann and I to write some notes about the major parts in the chapter. I hope you like my blog post and our comic strip. Have a cool 😎 day!! Bye!!

When the police people were doing there work they saw the Proverb Bandit had escaped the prison and ran to Flock’s Bird Sanctuary but the Proverb Bandit wasn’t there. Mr Flock said “The robbers have stolen my Prize Peacock.” Inspector Word saw a note and said “The pen mightier than the sword. So they went to Arthur Sword’s Publishing Company, when they reached there the Proverb Bandit had already gone. Constable Comma found an another note that said “Every dog has its day.” And they have stolen the priceless pen. So they went to Madame Day’s House, Madame said” The robbers have stolen my Precious Pooches.” Constable Comma found an another note that said ”Cast not your pearls before swine.” Inspector Word ran out and strate went to Pygge’s Jewellers the police officers saw the Proverb Bandit in the Pygge’s Jewellers when the Proverb Bandit saw the officers they ran out of the Pygge’s Jewellers. “You're under arrest” said Inspector Word. The robbers drop their bag and ran away. Then the police officers gave the things that the Proverb Bandit had stolen.
