Journal Choices 1. Write your responses to the book so far. You might also list questions
and comments that come to mind as you read this part of the book. 2. Create a timeline to show what has happened so far in the story. Add
to the timeline as you continue reading. 3. The word night is a key word in this section of the book. What does
the word mean early in the first chapter? How does the meaning
change as the story progresses? 4. The narrator from time to time breaks away from the story to tell the
