  1. If I could be an character from a book I read it would be Gaspe from the Great Gaspe. I would want to be him because he was rich and had everything but one thing he wanted. Gaspe had the big house, great parties, fast cars and everything that I would want.

    1. Sounds like quite the character. Be sure to pay attention to punctuation and sentence fluency, however.

  3. If I could trade places with anyone of the characters in a book I’ve read I would want to trade places with Barack Obama in a biography entitled Yes We Can by Garen Thomas. I would want to trade places with the President of the United States because I think I could really help the government and our economy. It would also be a lot of fun being the President. You could do a lot of things, and meet other world leaders. It would probably be stressful at times, but it is a job I would really like to have.

  4. If I could live the life of any character out of any book I would choose Atticus Finch. I would choose Atticus because he is a strong willed person. Also, he is very smart and I would like to be as intelligent and successful as him. He is well known among his peers and his children look up to him. I would really enjoy being as good of a person as him. He is a role model, Hard working, and smart.

    1. I think I may choose him as well. In my mind, his Integrity is his most admirable trait. How much do you have in common with him now?

  5. If I could be one character from a book I would be Katness Everdeen. She is such a strong and brave character. Katness sacrifices herself for her sister in the choosing ceremony and that is just her mentality. She puts everyone before her and thinking of herself is the last thing she will do. Katness is also very kind and caring. In the book she takes care of her sister and her mother. Her father died so this is her job now because her mother went into a deep depression after her father's passing. Katness hunts and takes care of Prim for her mother during this time and because of her they never starved. When Katness is in the hunger games she saves Pita; which shows how caring and compassionate she really is. She has the natural will and intelligence to outsmart and overcome her opponents. This is why she wins. Anyone could wish to have her traits. I know I do.

  6. If I could live the life of any character from a book that I have read I think that it would have to be Gatsby from The Great Gatsby because he has everything that every body would want, which is money and he lives in a mansion. Gatsby throws these huge parties. He also has very nice cars. I think that everybody would want live the life of Gatsby. I don't think that I could think of anybody who doesn't want to be rich and live in a very big house.

  7. If I could be one character from a book I would be Jean Louise ( scout ) from To Kill a Mockingbird .I like her confidence and her curiosity. She always says whatever is on her mind and I like the way that she is not afraid to do anything. She is always happy and has a positive outlook on everything. She also always tries to find ways to fix problems or make them better.

  8. If I could live the life of any character from a book I've read, I would want to be Jordan Woods from Catching Jordan. It was an enjoyable account of a high school romance that was riddled with drama, but it entailed emotion and I was eager to continue it again every single night. The reason I was so drawn to Jordan was because of her determination to succeed in her football career. She is a senior quarterback and quite possibly one of the few girls that is allowed to play anywhere. Not only does she continuously work for her team and dedicate her time, but she sticks up for what she believes in when her father is completely against the idea of her playing football in even any college that will accept her. While growing up, she learns that best friends are the most dependable people in your life and you should lose track of that.

  9. Praise the Sun! I would take the role of Edward James Kenway from Assassin's Creed Black Flag; the brash young son of a wool merchant who dreams of gold, he cannot resist the lure of a life of glory on the high seas. When his family homestead is attacked, there seems like no better time to escape, and he soon establishes himself as one of the deadliest privateers of his day.

  12. If I could choose to be any character, I would have to be Kevin from the book Freak the Mighty. I would be Kevin because he is a very smart guy, and he has many difficult words in his vocabulary. Also he knows a lot about science. For example, he knows which chemicals make up each type of firework. I would like to be as smart as Kevin is.

    2. If I were to choose a character, it would be Christian from 'Once Upon a Marigold'. I would choose this character because, from what I remember in this book is that he lives in a gem cave with a troll. The reason he lives with the troll was because when he was little, Chris ran away from home, then ran into the troll, so he begged the troll to take him. In my opinion, this is an interesting life to live.

    3. Sounds like an interesting story, Kaitlin. Does Chris eventually make it back to "civilization?"

  13. If I could choose one character to trade places with, I would have to choose Catniss Everdeen from the Hunger Games. I chose Catniss because she is a great representation of someone who shows determination, strength, the drive to achieve, and she would do anything to protect the people she cares about. Besides the fact that Catniss puts her life in danger when participating in the games, she is a very confident and poised individual.

  14. I would like Bree's like because I can relate to her. Because I haven't see my dad in like 9 years and she hasn't see her dad in 8 years and she had nothing to do with him and I have nothing to do with my dad so I would have to choose her.
