Growing up listening to his grandpa's crazy stories from the past, Jacob believes that he is someone to be inspired by, but he also questions his validity. Many rumors are made about his grandfather's loyalty toward his family, and Jacob wants everything in the world for them not to be true. "If Grandpa Portman wasn't honorable and good, I wasn't sure anyone could be" (Riggs 92). This is an example of characterization, describing Jacob's extreme loyalty and affection towards his grandfather; he continuously sticks up for him, without knowing the true story behind all of his suspicious actions. Jacob goes to drastic measures in order to clear his grandfather's name; this is just one example. The respect he has toward him prompts Jacob to make the spontaneous decision to investigate the unknown, mysterious island for any clues he might find. When accusations had been made about his grandfather's faithfulness towards his wife, Jacob immediately considers that there must be another explanation, which he is determined to find along his journey. Jacob soon uncovers that the stories he had been told all his life about these strange children with "superpower-like" characteristics are actually real. The pictures his grandpa had shown him were, in fact, not photoshopped or edited, but were completely real and he witnesses it. After uncovering the pictures he finds inside the house, he makes this statement to his father: "'I'm serious. Don't you think this could mean that maybe he wasn't cheating on Grandma, after all?'" (Riggs 101). This is a rising conflict at the beginning of the novel. When he finally comes closer to proving his point, he makes every effort to go out of his way to defend his grandfather to his dad, who did not believe he had the greatest of intentions. The

The cops are accusing Jacob of a murder. Soon after they think the whole family killed the person.

Jacob and his dad went to the island and Jacob couldn’t find the children but he found the house it was molded and holes in the walls. So Jacob went to one of the rooms and found a chest and ho couldn’t open it so he drug it outside of the room and pushed it off the stairs it fell into the basement and shattered, in it Jacob found pictures of like the ones his grandpa showed him. It was dark and all he could see was the giant hole he made in the celling, he looked up and he seen 12 kids and he just stood there and they all ran away but he seen this girl in this dress and he chased after he, he caught her and she didn’t believe him when he said he was Abe Portman’s grandson, so she tied his hands to a chair and waited till there was no people around and then she took him to the house. This time the house wasn’t molded and didn’t have holes in the walls. Miss Peregrine talked to Jacob about his grandpa and he told her about what he saw and what his grandpa told him.

Then thing begin to get creepy when in one of there every day routines of reading a bed night story Samuel is given permission by his mother to choose a book to be read that night. Samuel ends up choosing a book called “The Babadook.” As she reads it she begins to see that the book that her son had chosen is no ordinary one, so she decides to throw it out. After a while the book re appears at her doorstep with new and even creepier images than before. So she tries to burn it but by doing this she only begins to become skeptical.

The two books that I choose is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer and Trash. The Adventure of Tom Sawyer was an adventurous book. It also had a crime scene. The Adventure Of Tom Sawyer was an Adventurous book, because Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn went to a graveyards to cure warts and they also went to a haunted house. Each time they went to the graveyard and haunted house, they saw the murderer. They both were scared because they told about the murderer in the court. In Trash, it was an adventurous book and also had a crime scene. Trash is an adventurous book, because they were three trash boys that found a bag that they police had. They had to run away from the police and they met many new people on the way and learnt about Jose Angelico. The crime scene was when Raphael, one of the Trash boys, was in jail because the police found out he had the bag and he won’t surrender it. Both of these book are fiction. Both of the book, really got my attention. I really loved the book so much. I read it five times.
