Chapter 1 and 2 Review.

**** sorry for the late post, my internet was down for two days so I kept having to go to my neighbours' houses to use their computer.

In chapter 1 and 2, we get introduced to the characters. The main character in this story is Peter, a 13 year old boy. He acts and pretends like he is a "man" and does risky things, but on the inside, he is a frightened, sensitive guy. For example, in Chapter two, he threw a rock at Sir Phillip, just missing his head. He did not necessarily have to throw it, but he did, and that set Sir Phillips off. The reason he did this was because him and Sir Phillips had some ugly history. Sir Phillips came onto their land, and put up a stone wall around it, and claimed it was his.
After Peter threw the rock, Sir Phillips became infuriated and shot his pistol at him. It just missed and hit and burned through his hat. He survived, but then the men were after him. This was when his frightened side came out. Him and his family decided that it was best for him to get out of town, for safety. He admitted he was scared and afraid.
At the end of chapter 2, he ended up leaving the city, and could see that the two men were after him, but far away.

  1. I think there is too much summarizing in this post. Try to add some personal feelings and connections from past experiences.
