Chapt 6: Title- Sight of Beastie
Ralphs Journal

I was in a wonderful deap sleep thinking of what it would be like if I could be home. I was thinking of being in a wonderful place where I was eating yummy food instead of just fruit. I was dreaming of being served nice cup of warm hot tea. Until I heard the noise of the two littluns saying my name over and over "Ralph Ralph wake up wake up". They woke me up sounding very waxy. They started talking very deffidently.

They were both a blurry sight once I saw them and then they became clear, it was SamnEric they were supposed to be watching the fire but then I heard "we saw the beastie". My ears shot up when I heard those words come out of there mouth. They were very interminable when they talked. I told them with great waxy "I call a meeting". I decided to call this meeting to see if we are going to go hunt this beastie. We talked and talked and came to a decision me n Jack would go hunting with a couple of hunters.

We went over where Jack has not been before we saw freash water dripping down I told him we could put a coconut there to get more freash water. Jack walked away mutinously saying not dor me. I did not understand. I was very surprised we were getting along and not fighting it was only me and him, so much for the hunters. They were just throwing boulders down the mountain, we might as well as get back to the fire to keep it going. Jack was the one to lead us back I was hoping for a ship to come. Its all I've wanted since we've been on this island is to go home.

Chapt 7: The impenatrable wall
Ralphd Journal

Sitting there staring at the sea breathing in the brine in the air, I was very impervious just watching the waves flow. I was sincerely an impenetrable wall keeping us from getting back home off thia island. The ocean was a great mess of baravado. Then immediatly something broke my moment of silence with the ocean. I saw a shape of some animal, the beast maybe. It was a boar I was very impervious from ths very large animal. It was satring at me trying to hide in the large moors. I had the spear and threw it as hard as I possibly could. I was so excited I hit it right in the nose. The boar sagely ran off it was smart to do that. I told the others I was so excited about it.

I wanted to go hunt more but I suggested to myself that I/we wait until the morning to actually go hunt. I think it would be hard to hunt at night. Then Jack convinced me to actually go hunt and challenge myself.

We were climbing up the mountain until we saw this big shadowy figure in the dark we could not make it out what it was. We thought it was a giant ape flapping around it almost looked like a tent but it really did not look like it I was terrified by it. We ran back to tell the othera to stay away from that area it was not safe. For anyone.

It was bleeding right in the nose it ran off I felt a great rush go through my body.

Doing tow post shows that you really payed very good attention to the book! For the chapter 6 blog, my favorite paragraph was the second or middle one. I really like the line 'my ears shot up when I heard those word come out of their mouth.' In the chapter 7 blog, my favorite paragraph is the first one. Like how you said 'sitting there starting at the sea, breathing in the brine in the air, I was very impervious just watching the waves flow.'
And I'm sorry the Katie C was from me, I didn't sign out until I noticed it.
