The Thief lord p28 to 30 (end of chapter 3) Nov 30

   In this reading everybody settles down for bed. Everybody singles together to hear one of Hornets stories she had by her bed. They all stayed up for a while but dozed off. Their leader ( the thief lord) came back but everybody was asleep. We also learned that their leader always disappears for as long as a week. They say that he goes to a church every time he leaves. One day one of them tried to follow him but he spotted them before he got where he was going. This is only their nightly tradition.

The Thief lord p23-27 Nov 30

        In this reading we learn many things. First we learned other characters such as Mosca. Mosca is an African American that is really strong and keeps an eye on the emergency money and seems a lot older. SSecond we learn where they sleep. All them sleep side by side on their own mattresses because they feel safer together at night outside. Third we learn they steel from houses. In this reading the described a raid one of the boys did. This one was a huge raid because he got a lot of stuff but the more impressive part is he didn't get caught. Fourth we learn That Hornet (the girl) loves to read and even fishes out books from the trash because they can't afford to buy them.

The thief lord 20-22 Nov 30

       The two boys and girl go about their normal things. For example steeling food looking for better shelter. This time when the older brother asked the younger brother to come back, but he didn't he kept running. The older brother let it go but the girl said "If you keep letting that go he won't listen to you later". Since the detective is constantly looking for them I think they will get caught adventuly. They way they are walking around the town all day they should be very easy to find and they don't cover there tracks. If I were them I wouldn't walk around like normal people that aren't trying to hide. They should be more careful before they get caught.

The Thief Lord page 14-20 November 1st

          In this chapter we get a sneak peek to where the run away boys are and what they are doing. We learn that the boys arn't alone, there is also a girl cousin who taged along with them who is also around 13. Furthermore, the three run aways are running short on food and so they wont be able to buy much stuff such as food, water, and jackets because its getting cold. If they dont find money quick they will only have two opptions. 1 starve to death or 2 go back home where this is all ready handed to them for free. I wonder why they ran away from what seems to be a nice loving home.Although they have made it a month on there own i dont think they can last much longer since summer is comming to a sliding halt. I am motivated to keep ready this awesome story because the introduction hooked my attention.
