What choices has the main character had to make?
The main character has had to make the choice of whether or not she should go into town and possibly get caught by the army, or stay in her cave and probably die of starvation. Sarah went into town anyway and didn’t get caught because there were no army people there. So she went into town and got herself some more supplies and food. I agree with her choice to leave her cave and go get some supplies, without them she would have probably died. Another choice she had to make was whether or not to go to this meeting with this guy. So the day after she went into town to get her stuff, she went to this meeting with this guy she bought her stuff from. While she was leaving this meeting, someone took her and put her in jail to keep her safe from the bad people coming after her that thought she was a witch. The guy that brought her to the meeting came and got her and they went to another meeting and she told them she was not a witch. They thought Sarah was a witch, because since she went to that town they had been having a drought. In the end though it rained and they didn’t kill her or drag her out of town. I probably wouldn’t have made the same choice as her, because she didn’t really know what the meeting was about in the first place, and she really didn’t know the guy she was going with to. So if I was her I wouldn’t have really trusted him and I wouldn’t have gone.

Book report response #1
Have I learned anything so far?
I have learned that when something happens to you, you shouldn’t run from it sometimes. In Sarah’s position she ran because the army was going to put her in jail even though she didn’t do anything wrong. They were going to put her in jail because they thought she started a fire and burned down a lot of buildings. Sarah also ran because she was scared of going to jail and dying and just going to jail. I have also learned that you should trust and know someone before you go anywhere with them, like Sarah did with the guy she went to the meeting with. If she knew him better she probably would have not gone because she would have known that the guy’s dad was mean and was probably going to start something like he did. He started the group of mean people that were going to throw Sarah out of town, because they thought she was a witch. That is what I learned in this book.
