support your answer.

Long Answer:

In your opinion, why do you think Jess decided to share Terabithia with May Belle?

I think the events of chapter 10 has changed the family because I think they have became closer together because of the sudden death of Leslie. I think they all started to like Leslie. One of the reasons was that Leslie was respectful when going to church with them and showed them how respectful she can be. Another reason is that Jesse helped May Belle by getting back, Janice Avery.

I think Jesse decided to share Terabithia with May Belle because he felt bad for hurting her, and he really did not want to be alone. He knew May Belle would enjoy it and use her imagination.

Chapter 10 Answers.

 “Your girlfriend's dead, and Mamma thought you were dead, too.” (p. 102)Why do you think the author ended the chapter like this? What mood or emotion was she trying to evoke in the reader?

I think the author ended the chapter like this because, it makes you want to read the next chapter, and figure out why the family was so sad. The author left it like this because it makes you think about it all.

She was trying to evoke a sad mood that really made the reader interested and feeling bad. The chapters are really interesting especially the chapter 10. They really make me want to read all the chapters again.

 Question:

Lord, it

would be better to be born without an

arm than to go through life with no

guts.” What do you think this means?

Why?

I think it means it would be better to have no arm but have the guts to do things, so you can make  a difference to the world. It is better than being able to have an arm but, have no guts to do things. It is better because, you can be heard. Follow your instincts.
