1. In my book right now the four kids that have passed all of the special tests are getting ready for there first special mission. To pass all of the tests they each had the same scenario, a girl with green hair dropping a pencil down a sewer, than not being able to call there parents when they had finish the tests. Also the one rule about bring only one pencil and one eraser. Also the test is not all about smarts, but about following steps.

2. So far I like the book. It is not my favorite book though. Sometimes I think that the book is hard to follow, but the book can really get you thinking. Another thing that I like about the book is that the author, Trenton Lee Stewart write about each character, he tells about the things that each character is thinking.

3. I think the theme in this book so far is bravery. I think this because when all of the kids were taking the test some of the kids ran out of the room crying once/before they saw the test. Also I think that Reynie is being brave about just looking at the test and even for completing it.

4.My favorite character is Reynie. He is my favorite because even though all of the kids in the orphanage don't like him, he still do not take it to heart. Another reason that I like Reynie is because he always seems to figure out the tests.

5. My least favorite character is the pencil woman. She is the test administrator. She is always mean to all of the children. All that she does is eats pickles during the test. I think that she does it to distract the children. Another reason that she is my least favorite character is that she always lies. She lied to Reynie twice.

6. I think that the children are going to go on there mission, I am not to sure on what it will be. I hope that it is something exciting though.
