  1. This was a very good book. My favorite part was when they were in front of the bakery. One of the suprising parts to me is when they went in the bakery.

  2. What was so surprising about when they went into the bakery? I am also curious about who your favorite character is, and why?

  3. The lady who owned the bakery wanted to use the children to work and put benny the little kid in the childrens home. My favorite character is jessie the teenager girl. She is my favorite character because she is helpful and a good listener.
