Readers journal#20

Dear __________________ (Your name)
The book I'm read is called shooting the moon. The author is called Frances O'Roark Dowell. He is a really good author. He makes me feel like if i'm in the book. I think he should write more books like this.

The characters are:

TJ

Jamie Dexter

Eddie

McNeil

The people who play Gim rummy. Which is the main character.

The setting is in some type of camp,house.

The plot is about a girl that is very angry a terrified,sad that her brother is going to the Vietnam War to serve the army.She thinks that he might not make it back alive home or be back with no arm or leg. I really didn't think that will happen but in the end of the book it said that TJ was captured and put as hostage, with that in mind I think any thing can happen to him.Also shooting the moons is supposed to be about the book like shooting is for the war, and the moon is supposed to be TJ not being able to see the moon in hostage, Taking pictures of the moon for TJ.

My least favorite part is the part where the book says that TJ was in hostage.My heart was torn I can imagine if my brother or sister were in hostage. I'll be very terrified.

My favorite part is the part where the book says what shooting the moon means because it made me less confused than when I first read the title.
