Ryans Marco Polo Argument.

I believe that Marco Polo is guilty of fraud and that he is “The Man Of A Million Lies”. These next paragraphs will tell you why.

First my research findings say many weird things such as Dog headed men,Magic drinks that fly and refill automatically,he also said he catapults from a war when he wasn't even alive. If that isn't enough information then Marco Polo says that he he did not see the great wall because it was broken. It also says that he came back to Italy with lots of riches but when he died his family had no wealth. I’d say he is pretty guilty.

I have told you why he is guilty but why this is why i chose him guilty. First we had to research about him for a couple days and then our teacher told us that Polo was on trial and you had to call him innocent or guilty on a piece of paper and then 4 prosecutors said why he was guilty and you had to rethink your choice then it was the defenders turn and they told you why he was innocent. Then we deliberated and the guilty party won.

This is why I think Marco Polo is “The Man of a Million Lies” and very guilty.

Wonder Response

This year we both read and watched Wonder. In my opinion the book was much better because it showed much more important parts and the movie didn't. There were lots of things that were different and the same.

First, lets discuss the important part that matched. One example is when Jack punched Julian in the face the showed that in the movie another example is when Miranda pretends to get sick so Via can go on show for her family. One final example is when they have fireworks at the camp place.

Now lets think about the things that were not in the movie. One example is Auggie never had hearing aids but in the book that is an important part. Another example is when they had the movie it was not in the dark or outside. My last reason it is different is because there was no new dog in the movie and Daisy in the book was Auggie's dog not the familie's dog. 

Overall, I think on a scale of 1to10 I rate the book 9 amd the movie 7.5.

Wonder letter

Ryan K TAISM School Muscat, Oman R.J Palacio October 12,2017 Random House 1745 Broadway NY NY 10019 Dear Mrs. Palacio Our class just finished your book Wonder and I want tell you some of my thoughts about this Incredible book. To start off with, the reason I enjoyed this book was because you have some of the greatest detail. It makes me feel like i'm there. My favorite bit of detail is: "When we got to the fairgrounds the sun was starting to set. The shadows were really long on the grass and the clouds were pink and orange. It looked like someone had taken sidewalk chalk and smudged it across the sky with a finger." That was amazing. Another time when you put great detail in the book was when it said: " I loved hanging out by the campfire after dark the way bits of fire dust would float up and disappear into the night air I loved the sound the fire made too. And how the woods were so dark that you couldn't see any thing around you. That was brilliant. Next I would like to consider the characters. The ones I like the most are Amos because I am a huge sports fan and I like how you gave him the sports award for graduation day. And I also like him because at the beginning he was really mean and he was badmouthing August. But at the end of the book as the book says he was now like in imperial guard of August and that meant he really changed and he was nicer. Another character I liked is Justin because he's real nice and I like music a lot and its cool how you made him play the fiddle. Finally, I think one of the many big messages in Wonder is that even if you have a disability or your face looks different you don't have to be shy and other people don't have to be mean because we all have a disability and it might not always be in your body but maybe you can't write very well. Overall I think I will remember this book. Thanks, Ryan
