WAR

Finally! A new post!

How does the war find Nick in Burma? What does it mean for his stay on the plantation? What are the plans to get him to safety?

Describe what happens instead. If you were Nick, what would be the most frightening part of these events?

I can't wait to see what you think!

Ch.1-3

Wow! We are so proud of everything that you have found out about Burma and the war. You brought up many important details and interesting facts. Since we now know a little about the culture of where Nick will be living, compare it to the culture of London. How do you think living in such a new culture will affect Nick? What kinds of problems might he have?

Welcome

I am so excited that you will be reading Elephant Run, it is a great book.  One of the first things I would like you to do is get some background knowledge about Burma.
