She made the book sound real but it was fictional. She attracted my attention very quickly. The Mockingjay is a book that I could read over and over again. I liked the book more than I liked the movie. It was very entertaining and violent. I recommend this book the teenagers and adults because it is violent and has some explicit language. As you read, you will decide if you are on the capitol’s side or the rebel’s side. May the odds be ever in your
Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine is a thought-provoking fiction novel about a young girl with autism who is trying to find her place in this world while also dealing with the after-effects of the death of her older brother. Mockingbird is a revealing story that allows one to look inside the mind of a child with autism. Caitlin, the main character, has Asperger’s Syndrome, a term that was still widely in use at the time of the book’s publication. Caitlin is high functioning and extremely smart, but lacks appropriate social skills and has difficulty reading others’ emotions. As a younger child, she would flap her hands, spin around, hide, bite, and rock back and forth in response to frustrating or overwhelming situations. Currently an
The story starts with the introduction of the main character – Katniss Everdeen, and her loyal best friend – Gale. Katniss and Gale are both the breadwinners of their families, they complete their daily routine of hunting together and are selling their catch on a market – illegally of course. However, the peace in Panem can’t last too long – her sister, Primrose/Prim, is selected to participate in the 74th Hunger Games and Katniss volunteers to take her place. The District 12 gets its first volunteer in the history.
Succeeding Katniss’s rescued from the previous hunger games, it is revealed that she is living in district 13 (which was believed to be non-existent) with the rest of district 12, who were bombed. President coin pressures her into becoming the face of the revolution, the Mockingjay, which she accepts after she sees Peeta, who is captured by the capitol, acting as a traitor. While seeing another broadcast of Peeta, he warns Katniss that district 13 is about to be bombed, and that they will be dead by morning. After it is deemed safe to leave the underground bomb shelter, Gale and other rebels make a plan to rescue Peeta as well as Annie, who are hostages by president
The Mockingjay is an amazing book to read, and the movie is just as good. The Mockingjay is part of the Hunger Games series. After Katniss escapes the arena in book 2, they travel to District 13 to try to overthrow the capitol. Both parts of the movie and the book are heartwarming, adventurous, and intense, but have many similarities and differences. The similars definitely outnumber the differences.
Katniss Everdeen, otherwise known as the mockingjay or a symbol of rebellion, has started a revolution. She disobeyed and degraded her country's government, the Capitol, on national television by defying its legislations.When Katniss was chosen for the third Quarter Quell, a battle to the death held for the Capitol’s entertainment, she decided that she was through with the Capitol’s ridiculous regulations and so were the citizens of the thirteen districts of Panem. It was common knowledge that the Capitol does not rule their country fairly and they treat the citizens of the districts inequally to the citizens of the capitol. It was clear that the people wanted a change. The Quarter Quell is held in an arena where the contestants are held captive
To Kill a Mockingbird is an amazing book filled with life lessons. It gives the chance to realize how horrible people can be and how injustice can fit into the world. Though most people will leave the book with a different conclusion. It is probably safe to say everyone will have a positive conclusion and a new frame of mind. To Kill a Mockingbird is truly a
I would definitely recommend this for people who like Fantasy/ Science Fiction. This movie was very sad with Primrose dying, also Finnik died, and a lot of little kids die too, war, and more emotional moments. Of course Jennifer Lawrence was a phenomenal actor (as always). Well anyways it was a vey good movie and I did in fact cry. My mom said we might have to even see it a second time. Oh by the way spoiler alert Katniss ends up with Peeta and they have two kids in the end.
Aside from the fact that being a responsible person is a potent trait to have, being responsible has many benefits such as being triumphant in life and having an adequate reputation.
In a 2006 poll, To Kill a Mockingbird was at the top of the list of books that a person should read before they die. It even topped the Bible. with those statistics, you would think that this is one of the best books that has ever been written. However, I don't completely agree. To Kill a Mockingbird is an average book in my opinion, because the beginning is very slow and there were many irrelevant characters, but it has some very good messages and lessons to learn for kids and young adults.
Katniss and Gale went to a meeting. They had to watch Peeta’s interview with Caesar. Caesar had asked Peeta about the Quarter-Quell game and whose side he is on, rebels or the capital? Then Peeta got mad and said he should have saved Katniss and couldn't. He screams at Caesar about Katniss's innocence. Katniss had tried to leave the meeting ,but Coin told her that she was not excused. Then she ran and hid in a closet. Then Gale came in the closet and sat next to her. Katniss was glad they were friends again. She begins to think more highly of the people in 13 and what they've gone through. Katniss went back to her quarters and could not sleep, even though her mother, sister, and Buttercup are there with her.
The plot follows Katniss Everdeen, a girl who is selected to participate in Panem’s annual Hunger Games alongside Peeta Mellark, after
To kill a mockingbird book is a story you should never read. It takes a long time to get to the middle, the climax of the story. It also has unnecessary characters that should have been in the story only at the beginning or not in the book at all. Lastly, it tells the unnecessary characters story than telling us more about what happened to Tom Robinson, Atticus Finch, Jem, and Scout relationship and also about how blacks and whites are not treated equally.
I am one of the few people in the class who is not a Hunger Games fan. I read the book in grade 7 and I was not impressed. Maybe it was because of all the hype that I was expecting something better. I just thought it was way too violent. I mean, seriously, why would someone write a book about kids fighting to the death? It's like Roman gladiators. The movie was even worse. It was bad enough for me to imagine all of that violence, but to see it was awful. I had to shut my eyes through the final scene with the mutations. I would not recommend the book or the movie due to the ridiculous amount of violence.
In the novel, The Hunger Games, written by Suzanne Collins, the reasons for Katniss and Peeta's winning the Game was all thanks to the help of their team. Their team has helped them, Katniss and Peeta, by training them at their sessions, helping them get their sponsors, and keeping them alive while being in the Game.
